Hiring for 2024-25
Trinity is seeking applicants for the following positions during the 2024-25 school year: librarian, math teacher, English teacher, and Spanish teacher. For more information, send a resume to Mr. Cominsky.
Spring Concert
Save the date for the Music Department and Loyola House's event: "Finding the Way Home," a Spring Concert. Join us on Wednesday, May 1, from 5:00 to 5:45 p.m. The event is free, but donations to benefit the Interfaith Shelter will be collected.
Named Scholarships
Each year, Trinity welcomes more than 150 new students. We prepare each of these unique students academically, socially, and spiritually, and we believe that ability to pay tuition should not be a barrier to a Catholic education. We hope that you will consider contributing to our Named Scholarship Fund. Below, you can find more information on this important scholarship fund. You can find the commitment form here. Please reach out to Mr. John Cominsky with questions.
- An individual, company, or organization may establish a Named Scholarship with a designated annual contribution of at least $500.
- Donors may choose to name the scholarship (e.g., to honor others in any way).
- Named Scholarships are typically awarded to students who have demonstrated financial need through the Diocese of Harrisburg and Trinity High School's FACTS Grant and Aid application process. The names of recipients are confidential.
- The Named Scholarship commitment is for one academic year. Renewal letters are mailed annually in the spring.
Ski Club Offer
Ski Roundtop will offer Slope Days special rates for students next winter:
- five-week lift, rental and one-hour lesson: $319
- Rentals only : five weeks, $125
- Lessons only: five weeks, $150
This plan is the most economical way to ski or board with the Trinity Ski and Snowboarding Club on the weekly trips to Roundtop during next year's ski season. Please Contact Mr. Olivetti to purchase this special offer.
New School-Based Counseling Provider
Trinity has engaged in a new partnership with TrueNorth Wellness Services, a school-based provider with many years of experience serving students and families in Central PA. This service will be funded by our EANS grant for the remainder of the school year, remaining free for students and families. Additionally, TrueNorth will take steps to transition to an insurance-funded program at Trinity, so they can remain in place for many years to come.
Direct referrals can be made by students/families by reaching out to the Trinity Counseling Department. Additional referrals may be made as part of the Student Assistance Program (SAP) process. For more information, please reach out to Ms. Jamie VanMeter, School Social Worker.
Yearbooks
Online yearbook sales have ended. Limited copies are still available to preorder through the school. Please email Ms. Babusci with questions.

Congratulations to Maria Schadler '25 on her selection for a scholarship from the National Security Language Initiative for Youth, a program run by the U.S. State Department. The program's purpose is to encourage high school students who study languages and cultures that are identified as critical to U.S. National Security. The scholarship Maria won is for summer study and is highly competitive, with an acceptance rate of not more than 10-15%, depending on the language.
Maria will study in Taipei, and her scholarship covers all expenses for her summer program, including flights, daily language classes, room and board, and cultural events tickets for the six weeks she will be in residence. Maria was able to pursue this scholarship due to her work in Trinity's Chinese classes. Congratulations, Maria!

Fourth Sunday of Easter, John 10:11-18
Jesus said: "I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. A hired man, who is not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them. This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I will lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd. This is why the Father loves me, because I lay down my life in order to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down on my own. I have power to lay it down, and power to take it up again. This command I have received from my Father."

Reflection, by Miss Maria Villarino, Campus Minister
Jesus as the Good Shepherd who lays down his life for his sheep is a powerful and comforting image. It reminds us of the deep love and sacrifice that Jesus made for all of us, his followers. Just like a shepherd cares for and protects his flock, Jesus watches over us, guides us, and ultimately gives his life for our salvation. This reflection can inspire us to trust in Jesus' care for us, to follow his example of selfless love, and to be grateful for the ultimate sacrifice he made on our behalf.
