Highlights

Trinity Traditions Trinity School’s rich history began in 1951. While the campus has moved twice since its founding and the School’s programming is enhanced every year, Trinity also maintains and occasionally updates numerous grade-level, division-wide, and school-wide traditions that reinforce the School’s identity, curriculum, and values. This section is dedicated to highlighting some of the many special events that our students look forward to every year.

First Day of School The first day of school is important for all students, but there is something special about the Sixth Graders’ carpool caravan.

Catching the Gingerbread Man At the beginning of the school year, Pre-K students once again found the runaway Gingerbread Man while becoming acquainted with all the faces and places at Trinity. Staff and faculty from all over the campus provided students with clues to find the elusive Gingerbread Man.

Pirates Week In September, Early Learners wrapped up Pirates Week and their Shapes unit of study with a real-life treasure hunt!

Nursery Rhyme Parade

Halloween Parade Early Elementary Division students and faculty donned fantastic costumes and put the Trinity community in the Halloween mood by throwing the annual Halloween Parade.

Turkey Trot, a.k.a., the Fun Run/Walk In November, faculty, staff, students, and their families ran with Tiger pride during the 18th annual Trinity Fun Run/ Walk. This year’s theme was once again the Turkey Trot as it was held in November.

Patriotic Performance In lieu of their annual in-person Patriotic Performance in November to honor those who serve or previously served in the military on Veterans Day, the Fourth Grade presented a special video for the Trinity community that included musical performances, scenes of letter-writing to veterans, and tributes to members of the military who are connected to Fourth-Grade students and teachers.

The Nutcracker Put on every year by Fifth Graders, the much anticipated annual performance of The Nutcracker was set to Tchaikovsky’s classic score and included dancing, elaborate costumes and set design, and epic battles.

In September, Pre-K students dressed up as their favorite characters, paraded around the Trinity Track, then recited nursery rhymes during the Nursery Rhyme Parade.

All traditions occurred during the first half of the 2021–22 school year.
