Quest

     The 2011-2012 Quest began Friday morning, Sept. 2, with coffee and donuts on the Green and a kick-off explanation of the competition for all students.

      Quest is a series of events and competitions throughout the year designed to tap into a variety of skills and abilities among  students. Each class accumulates points by participating in Quest events. The class with the most points at the end of the year is proclaimed the winner and has its picture taken with the prestigious Quest oar which hangs in West Hall.

      The first Quest event of the season, Trinity Olympics, will be held during lunch September 19-23.

Open House and Information Nights
     Trinity School's annual Open House will be held October 23 from 1 to 3 p.m. This is a wonderful event that showcases our school to prospective students and their families. Please invite your friends and neighbors to take a look at our school.
      For families who are unable to attend the Open House we offer monthly Information Nights. These gatherings are from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. in West Hall. Information Nights are another opportunity for families interested in Trinity School to come hear about us.
