Middle School Notes


Happy Saturday!

As you can see in this photo, members of the Trinity administrative team took a trip to the San Francisco area this week to visit the headquarters of Apple Computers. While there, we were briefed on Apple's latest innovations in the field of education, and discussed ways we can integrate technology into the curriculum in an ever-expanding basis at Trinity. Brain research is showing us that technology enhances learning, and we are committed to utilizing these 21st century tools to the fullest extent possible.

Thanks for supporting our dress-down fundraiser for relief in Haiti. Trinity raised over $3,000 Friday. This money will go directly toward helping the victims of last week's earthquake. Your generosity is deeply appreciated.

We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Connie Cantey will be serving as our 7th grade English teacher for the remainder of the school year. Mrs. Becky Faulkner will take Mrs. Cantey's place as our middle school tutor through May. I would like to express thanks to both of these fine professionals for filling these important needs in our school.


Bob Thetford served as our most recent guest in our Lunch with Leaders program. Mr. Thetford, a former Trinity board member, spoke with members of our student council about leadership, complete with colorful examples from his career as an FBI agent.

Here are our tests for next week:

6th Grade: None

7th Grade:

Thursday - Math 7, Pre-Algebra

8th Grade:

Wednesday - History (Weeks, Franklin), Old Testament

Thursday - Earth Science, Public Speaking

Have a great weekend!
