As a trinity high school student I really grew a lot as a person and became more confident and able to make more friends. Academically I was able to succeed in the IB program. The one thing I didn't like was the revoking of scholarships I was awarded. The administration was also disappointing as they could not find a stable softball coach.

Trinity High School is very academically rigorous if you are apart of the IB program, which I feel has prepared me for college and given me a leg up in the application process. However, it also expects its students to be extremely involved in extracurricular activities to the point of burn out, and there isn't much help.

Trinity has been such a gift to attend. everyone on staff is positive and all students are focused and ready to learn. Those who do athletics and hold leadership positions are encouraged and loved. Trinity makes sure that no girl is left behind.

It was well before the IB and the skills and courses I took helped me enter the working world right after high school. At the time, I couldn't qualify for grants and being the oldest of 7 children, loans for colleg...

This is an academically challenging school that has so much spirit. The administration is committed to this school, its mission and each student. My daughter is a sophomore and loves her school. I have had other children attend other high schools and have not been nearly as impressed. The IB program...
