Middle School Notes


Good Afternoon!

I hope you have had a chance to enjoy this beautiful weekend with your family! Today has certainly been a "Chamber of Commerce" day - absolute perfection!

This year, Trinity School has endeavored to teach our kids about giving back. We have done this by sponsoring mission opportunities both here and abroad by raising money for Common Ground's Montgomery ministries, providing a well for clean drinking water in Africa, and donating our old shoes to those in need.

As you work at the increasingly difficult task of raising your kids in a world of takers, we would like to provide you with some tips that, along with what we are doing here at school and in the local church, will help them grow to be Christ-like givers. By partnering together, we can show our children how to serve like Jesus.

Grace Fox published an article in the April 2005 issue of Discovery Years entitled Serving as a Family. Focus on the Family recently picked up the article, and you may read it by clicking here. You should find some helpful tips to encourage your children to view their role in this world through the eyes of Christ.

Here are our tests for the week:

6th Grade:

Monday - Social Studies

Tuesday - English, Math

7th Grade:

Friday - Economics

8th Grade:
