Trinity School – Head of School – Position Statement 3
Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, Trinity School is a joyful Episcopal School enjoying a unique and enduring church / school relationship. All children and families are welcome. In addition, vital to Trinity School are the strongly held relationships between the two parishes and the school, between the head of school and the two rectors, and between the school board and the vestries of the two parishes. Often dual campus / church relationships with distinct parishes can prove cumbersome, but the strong support of each church’ s leadership and the presence of two impressive and supportive rectors have enhanced and sustained the separately incorporated school.
Trinity School is fully accredited by the California Association of Independent Schools, the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The school is also a member in good standing with the National Association of Independent Schools, the National Association of Episcopal Schools, and the Educational Records Bureau.
COMMUNITY OF THE SCHOOL
The respect for inclusion and thoughtful engagement defines the Trinity School community and its culture. Students enthusiastically speak of the support and love they feel from their teachers. Students feel accepted for who they are, and there is a palpable sense of collaboration in the friendly, very close-knit community. This atmosphere, in turn, encourages students to take appropriate risks to pursue new adventures and to encourage fellow schoolmates to do the same.
