Congratulations to our Boys Basketball Team

We are so proud of all of our student athletes! Those that made it to tournaments, those that did not and those members of our boy's basketball team that will not have the opportunity to further their quest for a championship since the CIAC has made the decision to cancel all remaining CIAC tournament games.

Please know that ALL of you are CHAMPIONS in the eyes of the entire TCHS community. 

Congratulations to the boy's basketball team on their Monday night victory! Photos Here.

Deadline is Tomorrow! This year is the 60th edition and anniversary of the Catholic High yearbook.

The theme is “ Our Place in Time ’ where we will be chronicling the entire history of Catholic High.

We are reaching out to you, as present-day students, who may have family members who are Catholic High alumni. We want to include your family in a featured section of the 2020 Yearbook.

Please take a group photo with all your family members who attended Stamford Catholic/Trinity Catholic (for example, grandparent alumni with their children alumni and current grandchildren who are students or parent alumni with current students).

In your cover email, please identify each person in the photo, along with their year of graduation. If some members are not able to be in the photo, include a line in your email "missing:" and list members and their graduation year.

Attach one photo and address the email to our Yearbook moderator, Mrs. Tannian at  ktannian@trinitycatholic.org . All photos must be received by  March 13th  to be included in this special section of the 2020 Yearbook.
Senior Video

As the countdown to graduation is speeding up, we are working on a ‘tribute’ video for our 2020 graduates. If you would like to include a special message for your child in this video, please send a picture you would like to use and a SHORT quote. The picture can be a baby pic or one you took last week – it should just be one that is meaningful to you and captures who your child is. Please keep the quote or message to two sentences if possible. Pictures can be sent electronically to cwillette@trinitycatholic.org or delivered to school in an envelope marked C. Willette – Senior Video.

All pictures & quotes should be submitted NO LATER than TOMORROW. If you would like the picture back, please note your name/address on the back of photo. If anyone would like to assist with creating the video (as Mrs. Willette is volunteering her time to put it together) please contact her directly.

Fashion Show: New Date TBD

The Trinity Fashion Show is an opportunity for students to model outfits they select from local stores and have a fun night with their classmates. 

This year we are opening up the fashion show to all grades. Please encourage your child to sign up to be one of our models.
They may feel a little uncomfortable at first, but knowing their friends will be modeling too will make for a fun evening. The sign up sheet is in the main office. 

For those that do sign up, please check your student e-mail for links to sign up for time slots to choose what you are going to wear in the Fashion Show. We are working with four retailers this year. If you did not receive a link, please send an email to cwillette@trinitycatholic.org.

This year, the fashion show is supporting Kids Helping Kids and their "Handled With Care Dress Boutique". KHK strives to create a beautiful and dignified shopping experience for local girls who may not have the luxury of purchasing a new 'special occasion' dress.

KHK are looking for dress donations of all types - prom, homecoming, sweet 16, graduation. Check your closets. If you have a dress - or dresses - that fit the bill, please consider donating them.

Donations may be brought to school between now and end date TBD. You may also contact Cindy Willette to make arrangements to have your donation picked up. Alternatively, dresses can be brought to school the night of the Fashion Show.

 We appreciate all donations for this worthy cause.
Reminder to Senior Class
Senior Class fee of $250 is now due

If you have not already done so, please send your check, payable to Trinity Catholic High School, today. These
fees cover our senior activities, as well as diplomas, yearbooks, caps and gowns.

Send to the front office, attention Ms. Betsy Mercede.
Last Basketball Game: 1st & Only Round of State Tournament

Spirits were high, treats were bountiful and the team and coaches were fired up to host the final basketball game on Walsh Court and the first round of the State Tournament. It was a magical and blessed night as students, fans and alumni, enthusiastically supported the Crusaders as they dominated their opponent. Every player on the team scored and contributed to a powerful win! 

The 1st round ended up being the only one, as the State Tournament was canceled by the CIAC, due to the potential threat of Coronavirus. We're all diappointed that our Crusaders won't have the opportunity to prove themselves through the Srate Tournament. But, we end the season with grateful hearts that we have been witness to and blessed by such talent, commitment, leadership and passion in this team and the coaching staff. We have NO doubt, they ARE ALL CHAMPIONS! 
Once a Crusader, Always a Crusader! #GrAttitude

The CIAC decided to cancel tournament. Read More Here
Light a candle! 

Stressed out? Need prayer? Come and talk to God.

CANDLES are now available for the whole TCHS Community to light in the Chapel any time, day or night. They will burn for about a day.

Candles are one of the oldest symbols of prayer we have. They represent the presence of Christ, the Light of the World, and also by using themselves up to give light, they remind us of His Sacrifice on the Cross when He gave Himself up completely to save us.

A donation of $1 is requested for each candle – please use the honesty box at the back of the chapel.
