The Importance of a Catholic Education

by: Nieves (Student)

I am thankful to have my Catholic education. I appreciate how it teaches and follows along the guidelines of STREAM. STREAM stands for science, technology, religion, engineering, arts and athletics, and math. We also learn the gospel of Jesus Christ and bring the values of the gospel home, instead of just keeping them at school. We work together at school for group and class projects.

As Holy Trinity students, we don’t just serve each other, we go out into the community and serve others. Just as we are taught to work together in school, we work with others in the community. We are also able to help people outside of our community with social justice projects. We are currently working on the Thirst Project, which raises money to build wells for less fortunate countries who do not have access to clean water.

I am glad to be taught so many Catholic and daily values. I don’t just get to go to mass on Sunday with my family at home, but I am also able to go to mass during the school week with my school family. We go to Mass three times a month with our class and once a month with our entire school.

Social Justice

by: Robert (Student)

At Holy Trinity, we are called to serve. Through Social Justice, we at Holy Trinity help others such by donating to the poor or volunteering in the community. At Holy Trinity School, there is a food drive for Thanksgiving and for Christmas. The food is donated to the poor. One year, the fifth-grade class gave presents to a family. The seventh grade collected money for Heifer International.

In the fall, kindergartners collected candy for the troops. At Christmas, the fifth grade provided Christmas toys for children at For The Child. At Holy Trinity School, the sixth graders participated in a service project called the Thirst Project. This project helped gain money to build wells in Africa. Every month, there is a day where the student body dresses casually for two dollars. During the year every class is involved in a service project.

We Pledge to be Drug Free

Every year Holy Trinity School students celebrate Red Ribbon Week. This fun, educational, and special week is dedicated to being drug-free. During the week, the whole school participates in activities in honor of Red Ribbon week. Every student receives a drug-free ribbon and a pledge paper which they recite every morning.

Pet Show

Every year the 1st graders participate in a pet show, sharing their pets with the rest of the class. The pet show is also a fundraiser for the Harbor Animal Shelter and Harbor Interfaith Services.
