THE
PILLARS July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2020
Dear Blessed Trinity Community, I would like to sincerely thank you for your generous support. Though this past 2019 - 2020 school year was unlike any other, I witnessed our Blessed Trinity community come together in support like never before and grow together in an abundance of grace and understanding. It is through your unwavering generosity that Blessed Trinity was able to keep our students at the forefront of excellence in Catholic education. This past year, your contributions allowed us to pivot to a virtual learning environment with minimal disruptions. Cameras were installed in classrooms for simultaneous virtual and in-person instruction, new energy efficient ionization units were installed within the HVAC system to improve air quality throughout our buildings, and our locker rooms, dance studio, and field house were all repainted with antimicrobial paint. Additionally, your generosity allowed us to upgrade the floors in our dance studio, complete phase one of new floor coverings, desks, and painting in our Theology classrooms, install new security cameras, complete the LED lighting project in all classrooms, and improve the landscaping at our Westwind Entrance to campus, among other facility enhancements. Furthermore, on May 20, 2020, we held our first-ever special day of giving which raised more than $40,000 in less than 24 hours. These funds provided financial support to many of our families in need, allowing them to continue to receive an excellent Blessed Trinity Catholic High School education. This was yet another example of our Blessed Trinity community coming together in a remarkable way. Two thousand and twenty marked a big milestone for our school as we celebrated 20 years! Blessed Trinity has grown significantly over the past two decades, particularly excelling in the areas of our school’s four pillars: spiritual formation, academic excellence, artistic sensibility, and athletic achievement. I am excited to see what the future holds for our students and our school community as we enter into our third decade of excellence. Again, thank you for your generosity and commitment to Blessed Trinity Catholic High School. I sincerely hope that we can count on your continued support for the 2020 - 2021 school year. May God bless you and your families. In Christ, Cathy Lancaster Principal

Online Learning Continues in Atlanta Area Schools Published by the Georgia Bulletin April 2, 2020 ATLANTA–Blessed Trinity High School has been engaging in online learning since 2014. So, when COVID-19 hit and forced the school to close, it was prepared to shift to what the community refers to as “virtual days.” Beginning in 2014, the school scheduled “one or two virtual days each year to help us be better prepared for a year when we actually needed to operate virtual days unexpectedly, such as this year,” said Brian Marks, president of the Roswell high school. Since 2015, Blessed Trinity has been a one-to-one Chromebook school, meaning every student and teacher has the same type of Google operating laptops. The laptops include a microphone and camera. Students and teachers use programs such as Google Hangouts and Zoom for online learning. The school follows a block schedule, which has fewer classes per day for longer periods of time. Faculty, staff and administrators are available online during normal business hours to answer questions from students. “Although I firmly believed we were well prepared for virtual days, no one could have ever imagined that we would need to operate them for weeks,” said Marks. “I am proud of our students, parents, faculty, staff and administration for working together to make this unsettling time as close to typical school days as possible.” Online learning has become the new normal in Catholic schools since being closed on March 16 due to the coronavirus.“It’s amazing really how we’ve adapted,” said Dr. Diane Starkovich, superintendent of Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Atlanta.

Blessed Trinity Provides Face Shields During COVID-19 Crisis At the onset of the 2020 spring break, Matthew Stevens, a sophomore in the Robotics Club, contacted Mr. Michael Pham in the Theology Department with an opportunity for Blessed Trinity to assist during the COVID-19 crisis. The project was to print protective face shields for medical personnel working tirelessly during the pandemic. The group, 3DPPE (formed by a group of Wheeler High School students) established a website requesting volunteers to help print face shields or donate materials needed to produce the shields. Matthew took the lead to contact the organizers and inquire how Blessed Trinity could facilitate and ensure that the need was met. The 3DPPE asked if our school could print 300 face shields by April 15th! It was a tall order, but Mr. Pham met the challenge head on by using the six 3D Printers from the school’s STEAM Lab and got to work during Spring Break. “Using the print file supplied by 3DPPE, I printed 340 face shields in 4 days. Each print takes about an hour to complete, so I had the printers running nonstop for roughly 14 hours a day”, said Mr. Pham. After completing the order, Dr. Chris Hawkins, a teacher in the Business & Technology Department, delivered them to a 3DPPE representative. The face shields were then distributed to various places, including several local private practices, Kaiser Permanente, Publix, and a foundation in New York called the Asian New Life Foundation. Blessed Trinity continues to serve its community in new and innovative ways.

Faculty Spotlight Jason Podhorez Jason joined Blessed Trinity in 2003 after working at St. Pius X for four years.
When did Blessed Trinity begin practicing “virtual” and what challenges did you face initially? We started virtual days in the fall of 2014, following the January/February “snowmageddon” days. During “snowmageddon,” I actually spent the night at Blessed Trinity with my son! Later that school year we had to give up one of our scheduled holidays to make up for the extended time off due to weather, and I began to wonder and discuss with the principal, Mr. Moore, if it would be possible to avoid future extended weather closures by conducting school remotely. At that time we believed that we had everything we needed to provide some level of continuity and learning from off campus. Mr. Moore received Archdiocesan approval and we held our first virtual day in the fall of 2014. What is the biggest difference between when BT first did “virtual” and now? Our original idea of virtual days did not include any live instruction. We trained teachers on providing on-line activities, making pre-recorded instructional videos, etc., but at the time the technology was not available to hold live meetings. As our annual virtual days continued, we eventually had a few teachers dabble with live meetings, but most stayed away from it until 2020. What has been the biggest challenge for hosting “virtual days/months”? Our original challenge in 2014 was to make sure we had a way to connect with all of our students. This was largely mitigated by the introduction of Chromebooks and Google Classroom in 2015. While there were a few challenges with specific classes (how to hold an effective lesson for a PE or Dance class) and new technologies, overall the process has been surprisingly well received by everyone. What resources do you rely on to give Blessed Trinity the best “virtual experience”? By far the single greatest driving force behind the success of our virtual days has been our Google integration. Starting with the introduction of Chromebooks and Google Classroom in 2015 and continuing to Google “Hangouts” and Google Meet for live virtual classes, Google’s GSuite for Education has enabled teachers and students to collaborate and connect no matter where they are. What do you think are the best practices for a successful virtual experience? Communication is absolutely essential. In order to succeed virtually, the students and teachers as well as the administration and parents need to have strong communication foundations in place. Additionally, the teachers need to be willing to step outside of their comfort zone and experiment with new technology and even new teaching strategies to ensure they are able to deliver their instruction through new avenues. Will you share a fun fact about yourself that would surprise most people? I actually love to step out from behind the computer and do physical work! One of my favorite memories at Blessed Trinity was the time I spent working on the first Tiny Home that Blessed Trinity built from 2018 to 2019 and donated in 2020 to a homeless veteran.

Titans’ Tiny House Project Complete Published by the Georgia Bulletin January 9, 2020 ROSWELL—Students at Blessed Trinity High School recently completed construction of a tiny house. They began the project more than one year ago. The house measures just under 200-square feet. On a custom-built wheeled trailer, this home includes a sleeping loft for a king bed and a twin, a kitchen and a bathroom with a standup shower, along with a sitting area. The project was part of an effort by the Roswell school to weave several subjects into school projects, linking religion and the arts to engineering and technology. Students started from the bottom as they installed the floor on the trailer, nailed the upright studs then attached the plywood sheathing. They installed the roof rafters, learned safety techniques for handling new tools and received basic instructions on skills, such as using a tape measure or cutting wood. This project—a first for the school—grew out of an idea of the students in the fall of 2017 while learning about electrical circuits. The project was to wire a micro house on a computer. Students asked about moving from a virtual house to a real one. The tiny home is part of a minimalist living trend. For comparison, the average house in America is about 2,400 square feet, according to the Census Bureau. A recommendation during a recent accreditation of the Atlanta Archdiocese school system was to develop school projects, tying a school’s science, technology, religion, engineering, arts and mathematics curriculum together. It is known as STREAM. Beyond engineering, this project incorporates faith and the arts. The project—built with about $15,000 in donations—attracted students with diverse interests, from the robotics club to the fine arts students who added flair to the interior. The brawn of the football team came in handy to lift the shell of the house up on top of the trailer. Members of the St. Vincent de Paul campus chapter handled marketing the project to parents waiting in the car line. For the faith component, the goal was to give the finished house to a person in need, a veteran, if possible. Designs and videos from Tiny House Builder, a clearinghouse for the DIY (do it yourself) crowd with visions of downsizing, guided the students’ work. This project offered young women and men a taste of the construction trade. The school’s robotics club contributed many of the tiny house builders.

Dance Team Wins State Title On February 15, 2020, the Blessed Trinity Dance Team (BTDT) competed at Columbus State University for the GHSA Dance State Invitational Championship in two routines: Jazz and Pom. The team won first place in the Jazz category! They were among 54 coed or all-girl dance squads from around the state performing in jazz, high kick, hip hop and pom in the event’s second season. Competing dance teams include up to 20 eligible students and enter up to two routines to be judged that are no more than two minutes in length. Judges score routines on choreography, musicality, difficulty/transitions, technique, synchronization, staging/spacing and showmanship/overall visual effect. “They deserve this recognition and as a Coach, I could not be more proud of my entire team. I couldn’t ask for a better group of dancers to work with.” said Coach Amanda Ketcham. Ketcham indicated she is hoping for more next year when Dance is a sanctioned sport under GHSA. Congratulations BTDT for your GHSA 1st-place Jazz recognition!

Best In State Published by the North Fulton Neighbor December 16, 2019 It was a historic day for the Blessed Trinity football team as the program won its third-consecutive Georgia High School Association (GHSA) Class 4A state championship with a 17-14 victory over Oconee County at Georgia State Stadium in Atlanta Dec. 14. It’s the Titans third overall title and the 12th time in GHSA history that a school has won three-consecutive state championships. “It was a year that all of us learned a lot from the players,” Blessed Trinity head coach Tim McFarlin said. “There were no indications earlier in the year that we would play for a title but the growth and handling of close games this year was on the players. The senior class was amazing all year.” McFarlin also became the 14th head coach in GHSA history with four state titles, earning three with the Titans from 2017-19 and one with Roswell in 2006. “The state title was good for the school,” he said. “I don’t think about state titles as a group because each one stands out. Anytime you’re fortunate to play in the title game, you have to have good people around you committed to working with each other as a collective.” Blessed Trinity (14-1) was powered by a game-high 203 rushing yards and two touchdowns from Elijah Green. The Titans outgained the Warriors 342-168 in total yardage in the victory. The Titans were the top seed from Region 7AAAA and earned postseason victories against Troup, Baldwin, West Laurens and Woodward Academy to reach the state championship game.

SPIRITUAL FORMATION Ben Hamrick Class of 2020
Ben served as an altar server for Blessed Trinity’s all-school Masses. He is attending the University of Georgia and is majoring in business.
Why did you select Blessed Trinity Catholic High School? I selected Blessed Trinity Catholic High School because it was important for me to continue my education in a Catholic school. Blessed Trinity’s student body was a group of well-rounded young adults, and I noticed that students excelled in both academics and athletics. In addition, Blessed Trinity offered block scheduling, rigorous courses, and a program that prepares its students for college. Blessed Trinity provided many opportunities for everyone in the community and has faculty and staff that truly care for students. What role did being in a Catholic school play in your life? By being in a Catholic school, I had the privilege of being able to live my faith while receiving a quality education. Blessed Trinity helped shape me into who I am today and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to attend BT for the past four years. How did Blessed Trinity Catholic High School help you develop and fortify your faith? Blessed Trinity’s religion classes and school masses helped me develop my faith. Having a religion course every semester enables students to deepen their understanding and belief in Christ. In addition, daily prayer, adoration, and confession helps students grow closer to Christ. Being in a Catholic environment makes it easy for students to learn more about their faith and show their faith throughout their time at school. Blessed Trinity instills many values within its students and shows them what it means to be a true Catholic. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? The biggest piece of advice I would give to incoming students and freshmen would be to get involved as soon as possible and focus on your work in your early years of high school. Your grades from freshman and sophomore year can really make or break your GPA when it is time to begin applying to colleges. What is your favorite Bible verse? My favorite Bible verse is Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

SPIRITUAL FORMATION Ryan O’Donnell Class of 2020
Ryan is the Vice President of the Class of 2020 and is a founder of the annual 9/11 Flag Memorial at Blessed Trinity. Ryan is attending the University of Georgia and is majoring in Biology.
What are some of your favorite memories from your time at Blessed Trinity? Blessed Trinity has not only offered me knowledge to take with me to college, but it has truly increased my sense of spirit. The home football games each Friday night were highlights of my week; the energy our crowd brings to the field is unmatched, and we are so thrilled to cheer on our Titans. From these Friday nights to the early Monday mornings going in for math help and a few laughs to brighten my day really rounded out some of my favorite moments as I walked the Blessed Trinity halls. The teachers do not realize how much they really change our lives, and for this I am so grateful. What was your favorite Theology class and why? My favorite Theology class was Apologetics. My knowledge of the Faith increased greatly during this course. I feel more prepared to face a non-Catholic school, as now I am able to back up my beliefs instead of simply stating them. Apologetics helps each student understand aspects of their faith in the “why” instead of the “what” which creates a clearer path to deeper faith. Tell us a little bit about your involvement in “spiritual life” on campus. I was deeply involved in many aspects of spiritual life at Blessed Trinity. I was a member and a leader for the Ignite Bible Study club and made a trip with this club to the Monastery sophomore year. I have been a Eucharistic Minister for my church and for the Blessed Trinity Masses each month which was a great blessing. I would frequently attend Wednesday morning masses which were in Latin, thus broadening my perception of the beauty of the Mass. I led a prayer group after school on Tuesdays in the chapel with a friend, as we led a few students in prayer and reflection. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? My biggest takeaway from being a student at Blessed Trinity is that failing is part of the experience, and one must simply pick themselves up and try again. When things feel overwhelming, a test seems too hard, a friend is giving you troubles, the most important thing is that you are true to yourself even through trials. Being resilient and strong will help you go further than anything else because you are able to stand up and try again instead of giving up.

SPIRITUAL FORMATION Patrick Lamar Class of 2014
Patrick graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technology with degrees in Business Administration and Finance. He is currently living in Atlantic Beach, Florida working as a Middle School Religion teacher at San Jose Catholic School in Jacksonville, Florida.
Why did you choose Blessed Trinity Catholic High School? I chose Blessed Trinity because of the school’s Catholic environment and because of their basketball program. What is your fondest memory from Blessed Trinity? One of my favorite memories includes singing “Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty” at the end of our school Masses (even though I am awful at singing!). Of course, I enjoyed all of my basketball games as well! What was your favorite memory from your Theology classes? Ravi Zacharias, a mainstream Protestant apologist, said in reference to the different religions of the world, “There are fundamental differences and, at best, there are superficial similarities.” I came to understand those differences and similarities better in our World Religions class taught by Mr. Morzen. Because of his class, I could converse better with people from different beliefs and come to understand why they act or think in a particular way. The way we act is, or at least should be, informed by what we believe. If we don’t act the way we believe, we don’t truly believe what we say we believe. More often than not, we have opinions and espouse indifferentism, which claims that there is no superior religion or philosophy. In this case, we really don’t have the supernatural virtue of faith. If you had to go back and do your high school experience all over again, what would you change and why? If I could go back, I may have tried more things in the Fine Arts department like joining the choir or drama clubs. I would have asked more girls on dates because, at the time, I think I was a bit too focused on sports and schoolwork. I would have also served at our school Masses. What are you doing to challenge yourself now that you are out of school? I am constantly challenging myself to avoid despairing about the current state of affairs in the world and in the Church; to love those in my life who bother me; to be courageous in doing His will; to know what action to take next; and to spread the faith. What book are you currently reading? Why did you choose this book? I am currently reading History of the Catholic Church by James Hitchcock and Baltimore Catechism in order to prepare to teach my students this upcoming school year.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Chris Rogge Class of 2009
Chris graduated from Georgia College and State University in 2013 with a Nursing BSN. He later attended Duke University where he earned a Doctorate in Nurse Anesthesia Practice in August 2020. Chris currently lives in Durham, NC and works at Duke Regional Hospital.
How did Blessed Trinity prepare you for college and your career now? Blessed Trinity provides a great environment for all students. It was wonderful to be able to take various AP classes which gave me a great head start going into college. I was able to take many college level courses at BT, ranging from Chemistry to Music Theory. What is your fondest memory from Blessed Trinity? Performing as Sweeney Todd in the Spring Musical my senior year in 2009. What was the highlight of your academic career at Blessed Trinity? I have always had an interest in science, but I found a true passion for it in Mrs. Ward’s AP Chemistry class my senior year. It was definitely a challenge, but her class prepared me for many of my college science classes. In fact, many of the principles she taught in her class apply to the anesthesia field as well! I remembered many of the concepts because we were taught so well. I’m thankful for the excellent academic opportunities Blessed Trinity gave me. The lessons I learned at BT laid a solid foundation for me to pursue a career in nurse anesthesia. What is one thing you learned during your high school experience that still resonates with you today? I learned that being yourself is SO important. I really found a passion for the fine arts while in high school, and I’m glad that I stuck with it throughout my high school career. I have carried lessons from theater to many aspects of my life today. I am so thankful that Blessed Trinity gave me that great opportunity. What is the next item on your bucket list? What’s one thing you’ve checked off your bucket list? I have never traveled out of the country, and now that I have finished grad school I am ready to take a trip to Europe! (Once things settle down, of course). What book are you currently reading? Why did you choose this book? I didn’t get to read for fun much throughout my nurse anesthesia training, so it’s nice to be able to read for pleasure again! I’m currently reading Hamilton by Ron Chernow. I chose this book because of the musical, and I wanted to read the book that inspired one of my favorite Broadway shows.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Garrett Pacholl Class of 2020
Garrett is the Valedictorian of the Class of 2020. He is attending the University of Notre Dame as a student in the Glynn Family Honors Program, majoring in Physics.
What clubs/teams/extra-curricular activities were you involved with while at BT? Some of the clubs and extracurricular activities I was involved in our Blessed Trinity’s chapters of the Latin Club and Habitat for Humanity. I also participated in Model United Nations and our school’s Chess Club. In addition, I was the science leader for Blessed Trinity’s tutoring organization, STARS Tutoring, during my junior and senior year. I was also president of our school’s chapter of the National English Honor Society, vice president of Mu Alpha Theta (our school’s chapter of the math honor society), and a member of National Honor Society. How has Blessed Trinity prepared you and challenged you academically? I think the most important way that Blessed Trinity challenged me was through the rigor of my classwork and homework. Not only did that help me learn much about a wide array of subjects, but it also helped me to become a more organized person, which will help significantly in college. I also learned how to balance my after-school life to make sure I had enough time to finish my homework, participate in my extra-curricular activities, and of course, get enough sleep. Learning how to manage my time effectively will come in handy in college and beyond. What are some of your favorite memories from your time at Blessed Trinity? What made my time at BT so special were the small things. My fondest memories of Blessed Trinity aren’t of big events or anything like that; rather, some of my favorite experiences were moments like doing a fun lab in AP Chemistry, debating seemingly trivial minutiae with my classmates in my calculus class, and animated discussions around the lunch table. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? One of the things I believe that many students take for granted, myself included at times, is getting enough sleep. I’ve realized that getting that extra bit of sleep instead of studying at a late hour is very helpful for remembering what you might need to know for a test or quiz. So, my biggest piece of advice for incoming students is to make sure that you get enough sleep. Of which accomplishment are you most proud? Being named the valedictorian of my class is definitely the achievement that I am the most proud of. What inspired me to achieve academically, though, was being the recipient of the Outstanding English 1 Student award my freshman year. Receiving this award motivated me to try my best regardless of how difficult the subject.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Jamie DeWalt Class of 2020
Jamie is the Salutatorian of the Blessed Trinity Class of 2020. She is attending the University of Notre Dame and is majoring in Pre-med and Psychology.
Why did you select Blessed Trinity Catholic High School? I decided to attend Blessed Trinity because I was intrigued by the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to the areas of faith, academics, athletics, and the arts. I felt that BT was a place where everyone could find their niche, and the faculty and staff truly work to encourage every student to become involved in the school community in some way. I was really drawn to the particular sense of community that I had witnessed in tours and had heard about from current students and alumni. How do you think Blessed Trinity Catholic High School prepared you for the next phase of your academic journey (college and beyond)? Blessed Trinity has definitely prepared me for what I may encounter as I move onto college. The block schedule not only mirrors the course setup at most colleges, but the academic rigor that I chose to undertake has, I think, given me some practice for college-level courses. I have grown in my self-discipline, and I have also learned that I can challenge myself in my academics with the help and support of my teachers and the wonderful Guidance Department. The accessibility of the teachers and faculty to each and every student also encourages BT students to reach out when they need extra help, advice, or answers to questions they may have. This communication skill will be incredibly useful in college and beyond when interacting with professors, advisors, interviewers, and future bosses or coworkers. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? I would absolutely encourage incoming freshmen to get involved wherever they feel called. Freshman year is a great time to try out many new things, and who knows, you may find something unexpected that you excel at! From various sports teams, to the plethora of clubs, to the arts, to involvement in campus ministry, there are hundreds of ways to get involved in the BT community, and doing so will help you meet new people. Of which accomplishment are you most proud? I am most proud of receiving the distinction of Summa Cum Laude every semester of my high school career. As a student athlete and a member of other organizations outside of Blessed Trinity, my self-discipline skills were put to the test as I balanced all these areas of my life. Receiving this award at the end of each semester proved to me that the time management and organizational skills that I was learning from my high school experience were truly paying off in a positive way.

ARTISTIC SENSIBILITY Javier Mina Class of 2022
Javier is a Junior at Blessed Trinity. He is heavily involved in the Fine Arts Department. He has performed in Puffs the Play and Thoroughly Modern Millie and is an active member of the Blessed Trinitones.
Why did you select Blessed Trinity Catholic High School? I chose Blessed Trinity Catholic High School because of the variety of extra and co-curricular activities that it boasted. I felt a very welcoming and united community, and I couldn’t think of a better place to spend my high school years. What clubs/teams/extra-curricular activities have you been involved with while at BT? I have been a part of the Symphonic Band, Concert Choir, Trinitones, and the Tri-M National Honor Society, where I served as the Secretary in the 2019-2020 school year. I am a regular soloist in the Mass Choir, and I have been heavily involved in the Musical Theater troupe, as well. Outside of Fine Arts, I have been a member of the FBLA Chapter at Blessed Trinity, competing in Public Speaking. I serve as the Vice President of Competition this school year. Outside of Blessed Trinity, I have continued to train and grow as a performer even acquiring some professional gigs. I have also continued my martial arts training, and I am currently a certified black belt in Tae Kwon Do. What are your favorite classes in the Fine Arts Department? It is hard to name just one favorite, but Musical Theater Conservatory brilliantly encompasses the main three pillars of performance; acting, dancing, and singing. One of the best aspects of this course is the creative collaboration between Mrs. B, Mrs. Clift, and Mr. Godbee, three of my favorite teachers! Each of them are so vastly experienced and talented, and they have so much passion for their art form and students. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? Whether your calling is performing, like mine, or sports or anything else, I implore you to get involved and find your group of mutuals because those experiences and people are what you are going to cherish most about your time in high school. It is not always going to be easy or predictable, and you aren’t always going to get the lead role or make the team. A lot of the time you might not get the grade you expected on a quiz or a test, but you are going to learn and grow so much in such a short time; so, make sure you make the best of it by keeping your head up and staying positive. Also, find good friends to hold you up when things are hard and celebrate your achievements when they come, because I promise they will!

ARTISTIC SENSIBILITY Elena Franke Class of 2020
Elena was an active member of the Blessed Trinity Dance program and served as a school ambassador. She is attending the University of Georgia and is majoring in business and psychology.
What areas in the Fine Arts Department were you involved with as a student at BT? All things dance! Dance Company, Dance Team, National Honors Society for Dance Arts. How did your involvement in these areas enhance your overall high school experience? The dance department and dance team have brought some of the greatest people and friends into my life. Some of my most beloved memories from high school took place performing on the stage or basketball court, as well as rehearsing in the dance room. I honestly could not imagine what my high school experience would have looked like without dance somewhere in the picture. How did BT help you grow creatively and expand your talents? During my junior and senior year, Mrs. Clift and Mrs. Amanda gave me the opportunity to choreograph a few numbers for the dance company as well as the dance team. This was a really exciting experience because I was able to experience dance in another way than I had been for the past years. It was incredible to watch a vision in my head be brought to life by people on stage. What are some of your favorite memories from your time at Blessed Trinity? My favorite Blessed Trinity memories include Friday night football games, my junior year mission trip to Jamaica, and anytime I got to perform on the Blessed Trinity stage. What clubs/teams/extra-curricular activities were you involved with while at BT? Blessed Trinity Dance Company, Blessed Trinity Dance Team (Captain-Senior Year), Orientation Leader, Student Ambassador, National Honors Society (Treasurer-Senior year), National English Honors Society, Mu Alpha Theta and National Honors Society of Dance Arts. How do you think Blessed Trinity Catholic High School has prepared you for the next phase of your academic journey (college and beyond)? The teachers at Blessed Trinity truly care about each of their students both inside and outside of the classroom. BT has laid a firm and sturdy foundation, rooted in faith, for each of us to continue to build our lives on. I also know I can always reach out to my Blessed Trinity teachers in the future.

ARTISTIC SENSIBILITY Gia Mongell Class of 2010
Gia graduated from The Juilliard School with a BFA in Dance. She currently lives on the Upper Westside of Manhattan and works as a performing arts teacher and Director of The Commercial Dance Intensive (CDI) on location.
How did you grow creatively during your time with the Fine Arts Program at Blessed Trinity? Mrs. Clift really helped me find my own voice. I came from a classical ballet studio which gave me a strong technical foundation, but it was getting to dance and perform with other dancers from different studios—especially competition studios—that opened my eyes to a completely new realm. I truly feel that Blessed Trinity gave me the versatility that I needed to succeed in a professional environment. I learned to embrace the feeling that I wasn’t doing something totally right, and instead embrace the awkward/scary feeling of trying something new. Learning to master this is key to finding your own creativity—and through a larger lens, the key to living a great life! I was also given the opportunity to choreograph for the first time in a safe space, which then led me to feel empowered to choreograph in college, and now I choreograph as a professional. I am so grateful to the Blessed Trinity dance department for being such a loving, nurturing, and safe space for young dancers to push past their perceived limits. I came in as a ballerina bun head, and I left with a diversified portfolio, for which I am very grateful! If you could create your own course in high school, what would it be and why is it of interest to you? If I could create my own course in high school, it would be “The Creation Process of a Broadway Musical”. We would learn about auditioning (union vs. nonunion), producing, directing, choreography, lighting, set design, and all the in-between. Ideally, the course would also involve the band and chorus, and our final culmination would be the school musical at the end of the year! I say all of this because I think I am the only person I know of whose first time being in a musical was their Broadway Debut. I was too busy training after school to commit to an extracurricular of that magnitude. What are you doing to challenge yourself now that you are out of school? I am always trying to keep up on my craft. I am actually going back to school to get my MFA (Masters of Fine Arts) in dance performance, choreography, and teaching. What is the next item on your bucket list? What’s one thing you’ve checked off your bucket list? I have been lucky enough to check off quite a few bucket list items. I danced on Broadway with the show An American in Paris, performed in the 69th Tony Awards, and I was a vacation swing for the National Tour. I have also danced for the Metropolitan Opera and performed in Paris! There are still many more items I want to check!

ATHLETIC ACHIEVEMENT Julie Lesser Class of 2012
Julie graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Sports Management. She currently lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and works as a Senior Coordinator for Partner Strategy & Management for the Milwaukee Bucks.
Why did you choose Blessed Trinity Catholic High School? Quite honestly, I chose Blessed Trinity because my sister, Ellen Lesser, enrolled the year before me. I got to see and hear firsthand how much Ellen enjoyed the school both socially and academically. I also remember my sister always talking about the extracurricular activities, so I knew that I would have a plethora of opportunities if I chose to attend Blessed Trinity. How did Blessed Trinity prepare you for college and your career now? I would say that my true work ethic was formed during my time at Blessed Trinity—time management, hard work, and the importance of building relationships with both mentors and peers. These are all important life skills that have helped me succeed and that I still put to use each day. What is your fondest memory from Blessed Trinity? I would have to say all of senior year! I continued building friendships and making memories with people I’m still close with today! Also, I was the co-editor of the yearbook, so seeing the final product was definitely another highlight! What was your favorite on field/court moment? Although I only played volleyball at Blessed Trinity for two years, I can definitely say that the team-building aspect of it was overall my favorite memory! Team-building not only applies to sports, but it is also an important life lesson that applies to your general day to day life and work as well. If you had to go back and do your high school experience all over again, what would you change and why? If I could go back, I would get more involved in the different clubs that Blessed Trinity has to offer! Being in the work-force, I have learned how important it is to get out of your comfort zone. I have also learned the importance of meeting new people and getting to know folks of dissimilar mindsets, backgrounds, or beliefs. You can learn so much that you otherwise might not have had the opportunity to learn about before. What book are you currently reading? Why did you choose this book? I am currently reading Shoe Dog for our Bucks Book Club, and I am about to start Just Mercy.

ATHLETIC ACHIEVEMENT Hannah Miniutti Class of 2021
Hannah is a Senior at Blessed Trinity. She is a member of the Cross Country and Track & Field teams. Hannah won the Girls Cross Country State Championship in 2019 and was named Gatorade Georgia Cross Country Runner of the Year.
Why is being involved in the Athletics Program important to you? Being involved in the Athletics Program is very important to me as it has allowed me to meet some of my closest friends, as well to reach my goals as a runner. How has the Sports Leader Program helped you develop as an athlete? The Sports Leader Program has allowed me to strive towards being the best version of myself. It sets a great example for athletes on how to handle various situations and what attitude to adopt in order to succeed. What has been your greatest personal athletic achievement/development thus far? Personally, my greatest athletic achievement was being named the Georgia Cross Country Gatorade Player of the Year. What is your favorite memory of your team? One of my favorite memories with my team would have to be our time spent together in Boulder Creek, Colorado my sophomore year. We would spend our time there taking ice baths, playing ultimate frisbee, and going for hikes. How do you think Blessed Trinity Catholic High School has prepared you for the next phase of your academic journey (college and beyond)? Blessed Trinity has prepared me very well for the next phase of my academic journey. I have been able to expand my knowledge in a multitude of different subjects throughout high school which has led me to grow stronger as a student, thus preparing me for the future. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? I would say to make sure you always stay on top of your work. Although it may be tough at times, it will allow you to spend more necessary time on various assignments rather than rushing at the last minute. Not only will this improve your grades, but it will also lower your stress drastically.

ATHLETIC ACHIEVEMENT James Bryant Class of 2020
James earned varsity letters in football, basketball, tennis and track & field during his time at Blessed Trinity. He is attending the United States Air Force Academy where he is majoring in Management and playing football.
What clubs/teams/extra-curricular activities were you involved with while at BT? During my time at Blessed Trinity, I was on the football, basketball, tennis, and track teams. What are some of your favorite memories from your time at Blessed Trinity? A definite highlight of my time at BT was winning the State Championship in football (three times), as well as, our football team trip to Savannah. How has the Sports Leader Program helped you develop as an athlete? The Sports Leader Program was great for my teammates and myself. It really helped us appreciate what was going on in our lives and use the tools to guide us in living a more virtuous life. Why is being involved in the Athletic Program important to you? The athletic program was a huge part of my life during all four years of high school. I played a sport every season of high school and never went home before 5:30pm any day. It helped me form so many lasting friendships. Competing for BT was such a highlight of my time there! What has been your greatest personal athletic achievement/development thus far? My greatest personal athletic achievement was winning and starting on a three-time State Champion football team. I also hold three or four school records for football which is pretty cool. How do you think Blessed Trinity Catholic High School has prepared you for the next phase of your academic journey (college and beyond)? BT did a great job academically preparing me because I know how to manage my time effectively. The more challenging classes definitely prepared me for the tougher courses I will face in college. What is the biggest piece of advice that you would give to incoming students and freshmen? I would say make sure you enjoy your time and savor the moment. High school goes by so fast and you don’t realize how fast it moves until its over. Enjoy it as much as possible.

Scholars program, a state-approved Student Scholarship Organization (SSO) established by the Archdiocese of Atlanta. In 2008, Georgia passed legislation which allows Georgia residents to re-direct a portion of their state income taxes to a private school of their choice for use in providing financial aid to students coming from public schools. The students must qualify for the financial aid based on need. Last year, Blessed Trinity received approximately $358,036 and was able to provide financial aid to 100% of all new students who qualified. These students will continue to receive financial aid through GRACE for the next four years provided they continue to qualify. Because these funds came from GRACE, it allowed regularly budgeted financial aid dollars to go farther in supporting the financial needs of the students coming from our Catholic feeder schools and other private schools.

While GRACE participation addresses the school’s critical need for targeted financial aid funding, it should not be considered a donation. It is, rather, a redirection of tax monies already owed to the state. We continue to be grateful for your much needed contributions to the school’s Trinity Fund as they help us meet overall budgetary obligations.

Ways To Give THE TRINITY FUND: Your gift to The Trinity Fund, our annual fund, is the single most important gift you can make each year. Tuition revenues cover the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basic operations. Additional budget items can only be funded through a successful annual fund. We rely on 100% current family participation to help give our students a full Blessed Trinity education, highlighted in our four pillars. ENDOWMENT: An endowment was established as part of Blessed Trinityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 Capital Campaign. Each year, 10% of all donations are earmarked for the endowment and may never be used for operational budget items. Proceeds from the investment of endowment funds are earmarked for Campus Ministry initiatives, faculty development, and financial aid. PLANNED GIVING: Planned Giving allows donors to continue having an impact at Blessed Trinity, beyond their lifetime. It may allow you to make a larger gift that might not otherwise be possible. It is easy to make a Planned Gift. If you have already named Blessed Trinity in your Will or other estate plans, please contact the Office of Advancement. GRACE SCHOLARS, INC: Blessed Trinity participates in the GRACE Scholars program, a state-approved Student Scholarship Organization (SSO) established by the Archdiocese of Atlanta. The state allows Georgia residents to redirect a portion of their state income taxes to a private school of their choice for use in providing financial aid to qualifying students.
