Message from the Principal
Faculty and Staff Appreciation Week:
Celebrated May 3-7

May 5 is Teacher Appreciation Day. In most schools, the celebration is extended to include the entire week. At Trinity, we have chosen to honor all members of our faculty and staff all week long. I am grateful to work with a group of professionals who are dedicated to serving our students inside and outside of the classroom; in-person and online. In my short time at Trinity, I have been moved time and again by the ways my colleagues touch the hearts, minds, and spirits of our Blazers. I would encourage you and your daughter to share a word of thanks with a teacher, counselor, coach, or staff member who has made a difference in their lives during this difficult year.
