List of 3 frequently asked questions.

  • Q: How much of the annual operating budget is derived from philanthropy at Trinity?

    At Trinity, the annual operating budget amounts to $6.1 million, while the total giving, which includes contributions from the Annual Fund, Faculty Venture Grants, and Benefit, reaches $880,000.

  • Q: Can Trinity just raise tuition to cover the total cost of educating students?

    The cost of independent school education can be high, and raising tuition significantly may exclude many families. However, the annual fund offers a solution by enabling us to keep tuition increases minimal, supporting academic programs, and providing donors with a tax-deductible option. Through the annual fund, we can ensure that the school remains accessible and continues to thrive, benefiting the institution and its students and families.

  • Q: Can working parents still volunteer in meaningful ways?

    Another form of diversity at Trinity is in working families' many configurations and how they balance careers with raising children. So we offer a variety of options for volunteering, from services that require short-term commitments to projects that may last several months. As a result, our parents find an opportunity that fits their schedule and interests.
