All alumni and their families are invited to join us for our Homecoming festivities on Friday, October 8! Please RSVP by October 4.

Join our Alumni Association! The group meets every couple of months in the mornings at Trinity to plan events and engage with alumni to continue to tell the Trinity story. All are welcome! Join Alumni Association President John Hickey '81, Vice President Maria DiMascio Centurione '85, and Treasurer Jim Holder '10 in engaging with Shamrock alumni! Email alumni@thsrocks.us with your interest or questions. We are looking for someone to fill the role of Secretary.

The strong Trinity athletic tradition continues! From tennis to volleyball, our students are performing in the classroom and on the court and field. Athletic passes are available in the Main Office ($150 for a family pass, $85 for an individual pass) by contacting Terri Kenski. Shamrocks far and wide can stream many athletic contests (including home football games) here. You can also follow our Athletic Department on Twitter and on Facebook for daily updates and articles. All contests are listed here--we love to see old and new Shamrocks back on campus to cheer on the Rocks of today!

Alumni, get back on the Trinity stage with our spring musical, The Sound of Music! We are inviting alumni to come back to play nuns or Nazis for our March 4-6 production. The rehearsal commitment would be very small (maybe 1 to 2 hours total) and possibly done over Zoom. If you'd be interested in performing or if you have other skills you'd be willing to share, contact director Caroline Oszustowicz Jarrett '04

During the 2020-2021 school year, we bid farewell to a number of faithful staff members, including:

We are grateful for the many years of service these individuals gave to Trinity and wish them the best in their future endeavors. We have welcomed several new faculty members in their absence, including:

Trinity has welcomed Mr. Justin Assadinia to our staff as Director of Strength and Conditioning. Justin works with all of our student-athletes, helping them to develop safe and effective strength and conditioning habits, to become better athletes, and to prevent injuries. The knowledge and habits that students develop through their work with Justin will serve them throughout their lives. Justin has a degree in kinesiology from Penn State and excelled in Division I Rugby while earning his degree.

We are blessed by thousands of donors who, by their generous financial gifts, give us support to educate the next generation of Shamrocks with academic rigor, immerse them in rich Catholic tradition, and provide opportunities for their athletic excellence to develop. See a link to the 2020-2021 report on our website, here (please note that the report follows the fiscal year, July 2020 through June 2021). Consider making your 2021-2022 gift to the Trinity Fund or Capital Campaign today.

Trinity's House System is one-of-a-kind in Central PA! The House System is focused on creating stronger bonds between students and on encouraging leadership. Learn more about it from our students and faculty in this piece by Fox43.

Trinity has added two more college partnerships this year. We are happy to have added Neumann University and Saint Vincent College to the colleges and universities who automatically accept qualified Trinity students and offer them merit scholarships. There are 20 schools in our college partnership program. See them all here.

Trinity is honored to have several students earn national recognition for their academic achievements. Congratulations to the following students!

Trinity Principal, Mr. John Cominsky '85 was interviewed by Joe Nebistinsky on Holy Family Radio for the new program, Central PA Voices. Mr. Cominsky talks about his conversion to Catholicism, his experience at Trinity as a student, and life at Trinity today. Listen here.

Trinity High School is pleased to welcome back Eric Kindler as Athletic Director. A former outstanding Trinity athlete, Eric knows the sports world of Trinity well. At Trinity, he was one of the top area scorers on the basketball court, with 1,627 career points, a Patriot News Big 15 selection, and on the PIAA All State Second Team. After graduating from Trinity, Eric went on to play Division I basketball for St. Joseph University, where he studied theology and secondary education. He also received his Masters of Arts in theology from Villanova.

Eric has worked closely with high schoolers both in the classroom, teaching civics at Boys' Latin of Philadelphia Charter High School, and on the court, serving as as head basketball coach at Conwell-Egan Catholic High School in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania.

Eric is dedicated to the faith mission of our school, with extensive volunteer experience with a variety of populations. He has experience working athletically with children, at Mission 5&2, and also with inmates housed in the maximum security prison, SCI Phoenix, outside of Philadelphia.

We are excited for the enthusiasm and expertise Eric brings to Trinity Athletics!

Several young alumni have joined our football coaching staff under the direction of Jordan Hill, our new Director of Advancement, head football coach, and former Super Bowl winner. Learn more about them and their take on the program below.

Being back at Trinity is "a dream come true. Once a Shamrock, always a Shamrock. Even when my college experience and professional career took me out of Central Pennsylvania for a few years, I stayed in touch with the Trinity community. I truly believe that T-High offers the best mix of academic and athletic development in the state. We have a mature, dedicated group of young men who want to turn the football program around so badly. They work extremely hard, and our coaching staff knows it's only a matter of time until the program is back on top. We want our players to take ownership in the program, with the idea that they remain students of the game through respect of and attention to the coaching staff and administrators."

After Trinity, Matt played football for Kutztown University and earned a degree in sports management. He's worked at Select Medical and UPMC of Central PA.

"Returning to Trinity is like coming back home. I see a lot of myself in many of the kids I work with. They share the same core values as I do now and when I attended Trinity. The biggest difference would be the level of commitment I've seen out of this group. They have put in a ton of work and effort across the board to turn this football program around. This team and these kids have shown more work ethic than any team I was part of while at Trinity, and I give the kids a ton of credit for that. Trinity football has always meant something to me and many others. I never really envisioned coaching and was caught off guard when Jordan Hill called to tell me he was accepting the job and that he wanted me to coach. After talking to friends and family, I knew that this was a golden opportunity God had placed in front of me. Coaching with Jordan, working with the coaching staff, and being around these kids has been one of the best experiences I’ve had in sports."

Colt graduated from IUP with a degree in marketing and worked at YRC as an Operations Manager and at Cisco Systems in sales.

"It truly is an honor to be back as a coach/mentor for the players. For the most part, the kids are exactly what you would want out of high school students. They are intelligent, hardworking, respectful, and most importantly, they are good teammates. Almost every day I get a chance to see one of the players either teaching another player what to do or encouraging them to do better. To be able to see things like that is amazing. When I saw changes happening in the offseason, I knew I wanted to be part of rebuilding this program and changing its culture. The culture that Coach Hill is striving for is exactly what I wanted to be part of. As a coach, I have the ability not only to teach the students about football but to teach them lessons that I hope they can use for the rest of their lives."

After Trinity, Tyler studied business management at West Virginia University, and he currently works for the Department of Navy.

"I came back to Trinity football again, after being a player myself and coaching for years after high school, because of Jordan Hill. Another coach asked if I would be interested in working with the program when Jordan came on, and it was a no-brainer for me. Jordan is creating a culture of close relationships with teammates and coaches in today's Trinity football, which is what I remember from my time as a student-athlete. He talks to the kids about the importance of brotherhood and camaraderie. We are trying to cultivate in these kids a desire to come back and give back to their school. The players are receptive to what we're working toward, and they're polite and hard-working. Their willingness to show up and put in the work is impressive. It's nice to be back at Trinity and on the field."

After Trinity, Mike played football in college before working in the construction and hardscaping field.

The Trinity Community Alliance seeks to promote the partnership between Trinity and businesses in our community that support our students' athletic endeavors. Thank you to our featured sponsor, Faulkner Subaru of Mechanicsburg, our platinum sponsors, Daily Express, Inc., Hilton Diminick Orthodontics, the Knights of Columbus, and our other valued sponsors found here. Learn more about the program here or contact Mr. Larry Kostelac '76. We are grateful to our sponsors for their support of our student-athletes!

Donations to the Trinity Fund support the everyday efforts of our students--their pursuit of academic excellence, the development of their arts skills, their athletic success, their spiritual growth, and their ability to thrive in a school that prioritizes community and the feeling of family. All of these feats are facilitated by our hard-working faculty and staff, and the support of friends and alumni of Trinity High School. We are so grateful for your support!

Trinity students relied on their school-provided Chromebooks in the classroom and at home at the height of the pandemic, allowing students the choice to learn exclusively at home via livestreamed lessons. This year they continue to use them regularly in the classroom.

This is a continuing need for each new incoming class of ninth graders and all transfer students.

Trinity replaced the east wing of the front facade in the summer of 2020 and the west wing portion in the summer of 2021. We also repainted the brown portions on the front of the school to Shamrock Green! Replacing the facade is the first step to installing an up-to-date air conditioning system.

Continued donations to the Faith in Our Future Capital Campaign will allow us to replace the rear portions of the building's facade and install air conditioning for students and faculty.

Bleachers--The new gym bleachers, when added, will be safer for spectators to watch the Shamrocks take on opponents from across the state.

Turf Field--Trinity plans to install a turf field at COBO Field, which will allow for expanded use of our limited grounds. Nine groups will use the field regularly, including the Marching Band and athletic teams. Recent donations have put us within a stone's throw of committing to completing this project in 2022.

A renovation to the auditorium is sorely needed to benefit the experience of each student, as this location is used for school-wide worship, enrichment from various speakers, and commencement exercises for our seniors. The planned renovations will especially enhance our music and drama students' experience by giving them a fitting venue for their considerable talents.

Trinity has received an incredibly generous $1.25 million matching gift specifically for the auditorium, and the project has seen several consultations with architects and engineers to make this a reality. Contribute to the cause by donating here or contacting the Advancement Office.

To date, members of the Trinity community have generously pledged more than $4.2 million to the capital campaign. We still have 1:1 matching gift funds available, so you can make your gift count twice! We are thrilled with the support from our community and the ability this gives us to improve our facilities. We are so grateful for all of those willing to invest funds, time, and prayer into the future of Trinity High School!
