History
The school was originally designed to be a full circle with a courtyard in the middle, but because of lack funding, poor spending, and support the school was completed as a half circle. Within the courtyard of the school stands a 15 ft (4.6 m) statue of The Holy Trinity - images of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
In recent years, the Holy Trinity Trojans have developed outstanding athletic programs which have seen much success with the three students that have partaken in our athletic programs.
In March 2009, Trinity gave the very first renovation of the school, to only the Art Room, the Wood Shop Lab, and the Foods Lab. The foods lab received new advanced and innovative appliances and equipment. The Art Room, and Wood Shop Lab received new lighting fixtures. In addition, the school replaced many library computers, with newish desktop computers. In addition to all of the changes in Trinity, the school also replaced its flooring, repainted it's lockers, and renamed the library to "The Trinity Commons".

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,—when did burdock and plantain sprout first?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
