On Monday, May 17th, and Tuesday, May 18th during Lunch Circle, members of the Class of 2024 will participate in a workshop facilitated by our Student Services Department on the topic of Cultivating Positive Relationships. 
Important Reminder for Seniors:
In order to register for college classes, Trinity High School must submit a final transcript to each student's chosen college or university. In order for us to do this, your senior must officially request her Final Transcript to be sent. If she has made her final college decision, she must complete THE FINAL TRANSCRIPT REQUEST FORM no later than Tuesday, May 18th.
  • If your student has not yet decided where she'll be attending, that's ok. Just please let Ms. Granholm know so that we can plan accordingly.
  • The final transcript can only be submitted to one school, so students must make sure the information included on the form is accurate.
  • As long as the form is submitted by May 18th, the college will receive the Trinity transcript by Friday, June 11th.
  • If any other groups or organizations (scholarships, NCAA, NAIA, etc.) also need to obtain the final transcript, it should be requested on the form.
Class of 2021 Graduation Event Information
Beginning May 14th, the state of Illinois has moved to the Bridge to Phase 5 of Restore Illinois which allows for up to 60% capacity at seated spectator events. After consultation with local/county officials, we have decided to expand ticket distribution to 50% of our bleacher capacity which translates into each graduate receiving 4 (four) total guest tickets to the Graduation Ceremony (the original ticket maximum was two tickets per graduate).  Click here to read more.
