We've had some wonderful, exciting things happening at Trinity. Maybe you've seen us on the news?
The Trinity teachers are, as we knew they would, delivering top-notch content. Leave it to them to realize that spectacular guest speakers like the kind featured in the Junior Leadership Class this past week, could join a Zoom classroom, and not have to fly to Chicago to meet the Blazers. And our Student Services department hit a home run with their
Virtual Calming Room
.
Take a look at the variety of options the counselors have given the students for making sure they have ways to relax. Maybe these are things you would like to do also!
Of course, our biggest news was the announcement of the availability of funds to assist families who are in need of tuition assistance for the 2020-21 school year. Just like our counselors and teachers, the Board of Directors and Sinsinawa Dominican Sisters want to make sure that our Trinity family is well cared for. By allowing access to the Trinity Strategic Reserve Fund, we hope that our Blazers will all be back in the halls next year.
There are some specifics still being worked out. You will all receive a very detailed email on Monday, April 27th and all of your questions will be answered.
In the meantime, the Institutional Advancement Team is working overtime to try to get additional funds for this purpose. They have been promoting the
#BlazerReliefFund
and as of last night, more than
$121K
was raised
by donors to add to the $1 million committed by Trinity. It is important to all of us that we have as much available as possible to help the greatest number of Blazers. You can help by contributing what you can

This community is going strong! We are so blessed to have the financial and spiritual support of such a vast network. Whether you can afford to donate at this time or not, remember that the most important thing you can do for us is keep us in your prayers. It is only through God's blessing that we continue to thrive in spite of the challenges. I ask daily for the intercession of the Blessed Mother to watch over the strong young women being formed by this community. Now I will add each of you to that prayer as well. It has never before been so apparent how interconnected we all are, and must remain. We're #InThisTogether, and #TrinityStrong throughout the hard times.
Thank you for all your support and prayers,
