What to Bring

Please have your child bring a water bottle labeled with his or her name. Sun protection (hats, sunblock, etc.) is recommended. Lunch is provided, so unless your child has special dietary needs there is no need to pack a lunch.


Dress Code

Dress for all grades is casual (jeans, shorts, and t-shirts are acceptable). Please make sure that your child is dressed tastefully (e.g., no torn or tattered clothing, no tank tops, no inappropriate pictures or messages on t-shirts, etc.).


Attendance & Cancellation

Field Day is a school day and attendance is expected. However, if there is a medical reason your child cannot participate in sports, please let the front office know at tsgloffice@trinityschools.org. We may arrange for your child to help run events, keep score, or participate in some other non-athletic capacity. There are no classes or faculty present at the Greenlawn campus on Field Day. If Field Day is canceled due to inclement weather, we will notify families by 7:00 a.m., via email. 

Parent Volunteers Needs


Parent volunteer needs for the 2024-2025 school year can be found on Trinity's SignUpGenius list. We are currently in need of volunteers for Field Day on September 27.


Events are organized under tabs at the top of the page. Please look through the list and find events that work with your schedule. We ask that families serve as volunteers for a least two events during the course of the school year. Thank you!
