SCHOOL DESCRIPTION
‘Trinity is a college preparatory, coed independent day school founded in 1709, grades K-12. Admission is selective and financial
is given, Trinity is no longer sponsored by a specific religious body, and the Trinity community is characterized by religious,
racial and ethnic diversity. The senior class is comprised of 112 students, 24% of whom receive financial aid through the school.
‘The year includes two semesters of approximately 18 weeks. All students take a college preparatory program,
GRADING AND CLASS RANK
Our grading system is A+ through F with grades of A+ and higher designated as Honors grades. Our lowest passing grade is D-
‘Trinity does not rank its students or compute a grade point average. The use of rank or quintile for a group of pre-selected
students is thought to be statistically invalid and incomplete. In the spring, a rank is determined for Cum Laude Society eligibility
