We're rolling out a new website as I write this. It will have a different look, contain
many important links and should become your primary source for the most up to date
information about Holy Trinity Catholic School and the many events taking place. The
Student/Parent Handbook, the Athletic Handbook, and a new Volunteer Handbook will
be downloadable from our site. School Newsletters, the Parent & School (PSO) meet-
ing minutes, agendas and announcements will posted there for you to keep in-
formed. Ditto for School Board and Booster Club information.
We expect to have our new site fully operation by mid September and we will be adding
additional features throughout the school year. Check our site early and often!
