Summer School Credit Recovery
Any student who fails a major subject class for the school year is expected to make that credit up using the school's designated credit recovery program. In 2023, this program will be different from what has been used in previous school years. The following classes require credit recovery: English, social studies, math, science, and theology (9th and 12th grade if the class is failed for the year; 10th and 11th grade if either or both semesters are failing grades).
Additionally, some (but not all) electives and fractional classes can be recovered through this credit recovery program. All senior year failures, regardless of whether the credit/class is needed for graduation, are required to be made up before a senior can receive a diploma.
Information about Prom
Trinity will hold the Senior/Junior Prom on Friday, April 28, from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. at the West Shore Country Club. Tickets are $70 each and will be sold from March 27 through April 5; no tickets will be sold after April 5. Students should submit this parent permission form at the time of purchase.
Students should look for a Google Form in the daily announcements to purchase their tickets and select their meal choices. Students bringing guests from another school must submit a guest form with appropriate signatures prior to receiving their tickets. All tickets are non-refundable.
As a Catholic high school, we require dress that is age- and occasion-appropriate.
Boys are expected to be in tuxedos. Boys may remove their jackets only. Ties are to remain on during the event.
Girls should be in a fancy dress or gown. The following should be followed when choosing a prom dress:
- Dresses may not have any cut outs or slits in the bodice or body of the dress. If a dress is two pieces, the midriff cannot be showing at any time (including while walking or dancing).
- If long, any slit may not come higher than three inches above the knee.
- If short, the skirt should be no more than three inches above the knee all the way around.
- A dress must not be so tight that it creeps up as a person walks or moves around.
- Dresses cannot be backless. At least half of the back needs to be covered by the bodice of the dress.
- Cleavage must be covered, and strapless dresses must fit appropriately so that there is not a need to be continually pulled up by the wearer. If a panel is added to cover cleavage, it must be a solid-colored material; sheer panels are not acceptable.
