I hope you and your family are looking forward to spring break! My prayer is that you have a happy and safe vacation.
What's Right with Our Schools
Recently, WAKA TV-8 did a fantastic report on how Trinity is using technology. You may view the report by clicking here.
Our school is poised to be a leader in this area by becoming the first school in the River Region to implement an Apple 1:1 computer program. Exciting times are ahead!
Talk About It
Let's face it, being a teenager can be tough! Ever since I arrived at Trinity three years ago, I have been looking for ways for us to be more proactive when it comes to bullying prevention. To that end, we are partnering with a company to institute an electronic means for students to let us know when they are being bullied or when they see bullying take place on campus. The program is called Talk About It, and you can visit their website by clicking here.
Talk About It allows students to let us know what is going on via text message or email. The messages go to a special account which routes the information to key school personnel. If necessary, students can report anonymously. Students can also let us know when they are experiencing excessive stress or other difficult situations.
Again, Trinity will be the first school in the River Region to implement such a revolutionary reporting program.
Stay tuned for more details on the ways Trinity School is utilizing technology to improve instruction and, now, to help prevent bullying. Our primary job is to do everything we can to make your child's school experience the very best possible.
Once again, my prayer for each of you is that you have a safe and happy spring break. I look forward to seeing your children again when we return to school March 21!
What a great spot on "What's Right With Our Schools"! There is certainly a vision for doing technology the right way at Trinity.
