You can download an application from the website or pick up an application at school. Come in and take a tour of the school by appointment or at one of our Open Houses. We will do a “readiness check” with your child and interview your family. In addition, the school may require the student to spend a day “shadowing” a current student. The Trinity Academy Admissions team will review and let you know if our child is accepted.
