Trinity Episcopal School

We sent 16 of our math teachers, specialists, and administrators to the CAMT (Conference for the Advancement of Mathematics Teaching) in Houston this past week. This 3 day conference was filled with mathematics specific content that helped them plan lessons to engage learners, featured keynote speakers, modeling workshops, networking opportunities, and more. Our math teachers COUNT! 🧮🤩

Candace helped make Trinity Olympics happen! 🥳 Besides being a chair for Trinity Olympics, she has helped out in athletics, and even stocked and ran the Trinity Canteen. Thank you, Candace!

Missy jumped in with both feet when her son started at Trinity in 1st grade. She is someone who always asks how she can help and has made a million friends along the way! You always feel joyful and included when serving by her side. Thank you, Missy for always spreading the Tornado spirit. 🌪️

SPRING SPIRIT DAY 💙🌪

We spread school spirit, played games, and got to hang out with Twisty! Thank you to all the parent council volunteers, faculty, and staff that made it a success. ✨

It was a fun-filled and exciting day here yesterday on campus, celebrating Grandparents & Special Friends Day and Easter with our traditional Flowering of the Cross service. 🥰💙 During the service, we decorate a cross and transform a symbol of suffering into one of rebirth. ✝️💐

In observance of Maundy Thursday, we held a special K-8 chapel to help recognize this holy day. ✝️

On the Thursday before Easter, we reflect on the sacrifice of Christ and his example to love and serve others. We practice humility with those around us and consider how we can practice sacrifice in our own lives.

Our 4th graders visited the Westcave Outdoor Discovery Center where they got to hike into the canyon and learn about the nature and history of the preserve. 🌿🥾🌊

March’s featured artist is…Ben P. 👏🎨✨ Stop by the Chapel Narthex to check out all of his great artwork! 💙

Our third graders are currently learning about migration and movement in their social studies classes! As part of this unit, our students hosted a panel of parents, grandparents, and friends of our community who have experience with immigrating to the United States. This panel helped our students to address the question, “how can we honor and respect our many cultures?” 🌎🥰

Our students recently participated in a Service Leadership project with Pop Up Birthday, a non-profit organization that provides personalized birthday party boxes to children in foster care in Central Texas. These boxes include everything needed to throw a party, such as party supplies and gifts. 🎊

Our students researched Pop Up birthday and invited the Executive Director to speak with their class, who presented an opportunity for our students to help a young boy named Juan. The students then created a budget and ordered the needed items. They also made individual cards for Juan and decorated his box. The students then took a field trip to Pop Up Birthday, presented to their friends in chapel, and threw a bake sale to raise money for future birthday parties to sponsor. 🥳
