Upper School Students Rock in the Spectacular Performa The play was a grand success performing to a capacity-filled Willett Hall on all three nightly performances, March 5-7, 2015, including a sell out crowd on Friday night. Trinity’s annual musical is a unique opportunity for students. Any 10th-12th grader can be in the play and it is completely student-run—from the set design, lights, sound, props, makeup, and choreography. It is a culmination of their work done during classes taken at Trinity.
Over 125 students participated in Trinity School’s production of the musical, Happy Days.

At the conclusion of the final night's performance, the Linda Shands Award for "Excellence in Drama" was awarded to Caroline Colee. This award is named in memory of sixth grade teacher, Linda Shands, and is voted on by cast and crew for a three year senior participant who reflects the same spirit, encouragement and enthusiasm for performance Mrs. Shands shared with all who knew her. Happy Days, directed by Mala Kelley and produced by Laura Williams, was the 21st musical produced by the Trinity Drama Department.

Anna Lee was a three-sport student athlete, playing on Trinity's varsity soccer team. She lettered in volleyball, basketball and soccer for the past four years and was a starter as a junior in basketball making it to the Area Championship and the State Final Four. As a senior, Anna Lee was team captain and a starter in basketball, averaging 17 points and 8 rebounds, and was named to the Capital City Championship All Tournament Team. Anna Lee's intensity on the volleyball court contributed to Trinity’s Class 3A Area Championship. She is a four-year starter on Trinity’s varsity soccer team and was awarded the Defense Award. Anna Lee was truly an elite scholar-athlete at Trinity. Recently her Advanced Placement European and U.S. History teacher had this to say, “Anna Lee is easily one of the most talented students that I have had the pleasure of knowing throughout my teaching career. She is meticulous with her class work, always giving 100%.” Her volleyball coach mirrored those statements, “Anna Lee is always giving 110% effort in practice and games. She is the kind of athlete that is constantly pushing herself to be better spiritually, mentally, and physically." Anna Lee's effort is evident in everything she does, both academically and athletically. She was accepted to Vanderbilt University and will begin classes there this fall in Nashville.
