Philosophy/Belief Statement:

The Student is the focal point of Trinity High School. Three core values guide our commitment to this belief:
Scholarship
We believe that through education each student can become an effective thinking, experiencing and sensitive person. Trinity will provide educational opportunities to prepare the student for lifelong learning and continued intellectual, spiritual and physical growth.
Discipline
We believe that through firm, consistent and caring guidance each student can develop the mental maturity and moral character to adopt patterns
of behavior that are consistent with Christian values and traditions. Trinity will provide a nurturing and supportive environment with appropriate limits conducive to the development and maintenance of self-discipline and responsible behavior.
Responsibility
We believe that by promoting the concept of responsibility each student can develop the confidence to think critically, make deliberate decisions and be held accountable for those decisions. Trinity will provide opportunities for each student to utilize those talents and abilities necessary for the improvement of self and the world in which we live.

School History:

Trinity was founded in 1953 as a Catholic college-preparatory high school which would serve the broadest possible range of students with regard to race, religious background, socio-economic level, geographic location and, most importantly, academic potential.

Notes/School Information:

Since its inception in 1953 Trinity has welcomed the widest range of students possible and surrounded them with great teachers and four flexible academic programs tailored to their abilities.
 
This inclusive environment, coupled with an engaging block schedule and welcoming House System, has helped our students earn record academic results and quickly find where they belong
 
As a Catholic High School, Trinity also takes great pride in being a college-preparatory high school forming men of faith and men of character. 
 
The Archdiocese of Louisville sponsors the school, which is governed by a board of directors representing a broad cross-section of the community. The United States Department of Education has recognized Trinity as a School of Excellence. Trinity is accredited by AdvancED, the Department of Education of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and is a member of the National Catholic Educational Association.
 
Trinity High School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally available to students. Trinity does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, or disability (if with reasonable accommodation the student can meet the requirements of Trinity’s course of study) in the administration of its educational policies, scholarship or loan programs, athletic or other school-administered programs.
