Trinity has been blessed by two matching gifts from generous donors. An anonymous donor has pledged $1.25 million in matching funds to renovate the auditorium, and two other generous donors have pledged $400,000 in unrestricted matching gifts for this year! So far, donors have pledged $3.65 million to renovate our facilities! We are excited about the enthusiasm our community has shown and about the ability that gives us to improve our facilities. We are so fortunate to have supportive members of the community who are willing to invest in the future of Trinity High School!

Trinity is back in session in-person, five days a week, the only major high school on the West Shore to do so. To date (seven weeks in session), we have had just one positive case. Everyone in the school is wearing masks and practicing social distancing. We have increased our cleaning protocols and changed schedules to reduce the number of students in the hallway at a given time. Though there are many changes, we are thankful to be back together again.

Not every student is joining us physically in the classroom, though. Over the summer, we installed state-of-the-art cameras in each classroom to allow our classes to be livestreamed to students at home. Some students are learning completely online, while others are following a hybrid schedule. The new capabilities have also allowed students who are sick to attend class from home. A huge thank you to our teachers for adapting to added responsibilities, our administration for navigating a difficult situation, and our families for following our safety protocols!

Over the summer, part of the school's front facade was replaced! In addition to providing a fresher look, the new facade is much more energy-efficient and allows for the installation of air conditioning. We plan to continue replacing the facade around the school and hope to install air conditioning soon (pending contributions to the Campaign)! Bishop Gainer blessed the new work in August in front of a limited group of Capital Campaign Cabinet members. Thank you to all who have donated so far!

The limitations on gatherings in the state of Pennsylvania has forced us to limit attendees at our athletic contests to parents of players only. However, it has also spurred us to broadcast some varsity events live (in football, soccer, and volleyball this fall). Follow Shamrock Athletics and check out the posted events to cheer on the Shamrocks from wherever you are!

Trinity launched a Great Books program in the spring of 2020 and welcomed more than 30 students into the pilot portion of the program! Students elect to join the program, then read six books over their time at Trinity, choosing from more than 20 categories, including "African American Experience," "Eastern Religions," "Native American Experience," and "Golden Age of English Theatre." Students are paired with a faculty mentor to discuss their reading. So far, students have challenged themselves by reading books such as I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings and The Karamazov Brothers.

Trinity is offering two new classes this year: Entrepreneurship and Robotics!

This year, Trinity welcomed more than 140 new students through our doors to a building that had been quickly updated to accommodate the needs of the 2020-2021 learner. Changes included state-of-the-art cameras to live-stream classes and a host of safety features. These changes allow us to continue to prepare students academically, socially, and spiritually. By contributing to The Trinity Fund, you support the monumental effort of our teachers to continue instruction in-person and online, the opportunities our students have to learn in a situation that best suits their needs, and our mission to bring "the highest good" to all members of our community. You may also consider contributing through the opportunities below.

The Trinity Community Alliance Program is a one-stop-shop for marketing opportunities throughout the school year, while providing vital financial resources to help underwrite all of Trinity High School's athletic programs. This advertising initiative is designed to provide your business with true marketing value through a wide variety of multi-platform advertisements.

The three tiers of the Trinity Community Alliance Program include various opportunities for reaching your potential customers. Community Alliance relationships run for an entire year (July 1 through June 30). Learn more about the program here.

Named scholarships help provide support for the 40% of students who come to Trinity and need financial aid. Below, you can find more information on this important scholarship fund. Please reach out to the Advancement Office with questions.

The technology facet of our Campaign was completed just in time! Chromebooks were purchased and distributed to each student and faculty member in February of 2020, a month before the coronavirus necessitated a closure of school and the transition to online learning for every student. Chromebooks in the 2020-2021 school year are allowing some students to stream their classes entirely from home and others to use technology every day in the classroom.

Trinity replaced the east wing of the front facade in the summer of 2020. This project is the first step to installing an up-to-date HVAC system, which we could do as soon as the summer of 2021. We also plan to paint the central part of the facade green. Continued donations to the Faith in Our Future Capital Campaign will allow us to replace more of the facade and install air conditioning for students and faculty.

Bleachers--The gym bleachers were scheduled to be replaced over the summer of 2020, but due to manufacturing issues relating to COVID, the project was unable to be completed as planned. The bleachers are scheduled to be replaced in the summer of 2021.

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. The field could be completed as early as the summer of 2021, pending receipt of adequate donations.

Trinity has received an incredibly generous $1.25 million matching gift to renovate the auditorium! This gift is a giant step to providing our music and drama students with a fitting venue, as well as giving all our students a comfortable place to listen to speakers, worship as a school community at Mass, and celebrate events like commencement!
