Every BCHS parent is a member of the Trinity Club. This is the parent organization that has been part of BCHS for many, many years. Trinity Club serves, connects and prays. The group offers many opportunities during the year for service to the school community, staff, teachers and students.
Events are scheduled for parents to learn about "tough topics" and for parents to meet each other. There are opportunities to pray the rosary at different times of the year, both inside the school and on the lawn of the St. Benedict Center. The Trinity Club is a great way to get involved and make some new friends!
Trinity Club volunteers can be found setting up, cleaning up, host and hostessing, serving, donating and sometimes just greeting people when they walk in the doors! We are even hoping to bring back the VERY popular staff and teacher lunches! Check out the Trinity Club page for more information and to volunteer.
We look forward to seeing you at BCHS events. For more information go to the website or follow our twitter page @BCTrinity.
