Get Involved

Welcome!

Every parent and guardian of a Trinity student is automatically a member of the Trinity Parents Association (TPA).

Get Involved, Have Fun!

The TPA works in partnership with the school administration, faculty, and staff to support the experience of the students at Trinity School. Since 1961, parents have generously contributed their time, experience, and expertise to the TPA and are a critical part of the strength of the Trinity Community.

    In honor of St. Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals and ecology, we honor and bless all creatures great and small. Your favorite, well-behaved pet (breathing or stuffed) or a photograph of an animal that needs to stay home are all welcome. Animal friends must be leashed or caged appropriately. Arrive at school with your pet to be blessed for this courtyard Chapel service.
