Accreditation is a process of ongoing school improvement. Our ultimate goal is the highest student achievement for our students, and we want to always be on the road to improvement. As the school prepares for our Accreditation year (school is accredited by the WCEA), we want to share the process with you as we proceed. All of our work is guided by our mission statement and in support of our parish.

The mission of Holy Trinity Catholic School is:
Through academic excellence, Holy Trinity Catholic School prepares students emotionally, intellectually, morally, physically and spiritually for the world in which they live.

School Accreditation Update December 3, 2018

Our journey towards re-accreditation continues.  Committees are working diligently on various aspects of the Improving Student Learning Self Study process.  They are putting discussion questions out to various groups of shareholders to gather the information and data needed to assess our strengths and identify our areas for growth.  In the coming weeks, various surveys will also help up to gather the data needed to assess our overall school program.  A primary focus of this process is the assessment of our Catholic Identity as a school and how effective we are at infusing this Catholic Identity into our entire curriculum and school culture so as to enhance the high achievement of all students.  Catholic Identity is defined as "the distinctive religious dimension found in Catholic schools which emphasizes message, community, service and worship centered in Eucharist as found in the Catholic tradition".

School Accreditation Update October 5, 2018

Holy Trinity Catholic School is always seeking the best and most effective ways to educate children for the 21 st century, infusing this education with a strong and vital Catholic identity, while supporting parents for their role as the primary educators of their children. Every six years we have the opportunity for a very specific Self Study process leading to the re-accreditation of the school.

During the 2018-2019 school year, the school will involve all of its shareholders – faculty, staff, parents, students, and parishioners – in this process using a specific protocol outlined by the Western Catholic Educational Association (WECA). In the fall of 2019, a Visiting Committee from WCEA will review our Self Study document, including our Action Plan, for ongoing improvement, and will determine our accreditation status for the next six years. Throughout the year, we will be keeping you informed about this Self Study and Accreditation process. We welcome your support, your feedback, and your prayers for the success of this process. For more details on this process please visit our school website and the WCEA website.

New Mission Statement and SLE

In preparation for our 2018-2019 Self Study process, we spent the spring of 2018 reviewing our school mission statement and student learning expectations (SLE).  Our mission statement was found to be inadequate to describe the complete picture of what great things we do here at school.  Our SLE, while excellent in content and message, were too long for students to find useful.  In staff, SAC, and administration meetings, we brainstormed, reviewed, edited and sought feedback.  We are happy with our newly worded mission statement and SLE.  Here is a look at the updated wording and visual.
