Important Information

Next Monday, March 17, is St. Patrick’s Day. It is also Green Day at Trinity, so everyone should wear something green.

I can’t believe that we are two-thirds of the way through the school year. The second trimester ends on Wednesday.

We are leading chapel this Wednesday.

The Parent/Guardian signature page for the stuffed animal report is due on Tuesday, March 11. Please make sure your child get his/her parent/guardian signature page handed in by that date. If you need an extra copy of the report, you can find it here (“Stuffed” Animal Report)
