"I have seen firsthand the godly manner in which the school is conducted. I have watched the teachers deal with incidents with loving compassion. I have seen and heard the coaches emphasize honor and commitment along with athletic skills. I have observed the administration personally involved in the lives of the children. I have seen the students excited about their privilege of sharing Jesus with each other at school. I have witnessed a school that sincerely seeks to partner with Christian families. I am overjoyed that two of my grandchildren are students at Trinity."
Bebe Stone, grandmother to Joseph and Ella
Scholarships may come from a variety of sources. The largest source of academic scholarships comes from government agencies (based on FAFSA results) and colleges. Most colleges have scholarship funds for students with particular skills and abilities as well as demonstrated academic excellence. Inquire at the specific institution and/or check the institution’s website for more information.
National Merit Scholarships are available to students who qualify with high grades and PSAT scores from the junior year.
Other scholarship opportunities come from national and local foundations, religious organizations, fraternities and sororities, alumni groups, and organizations such as the American Legion, civic clubs, Chambers of Commerce, etc. TCA students are made aware of these opportunities in the following ways:
• Daily morning announcements
• Updated list posted on the Guidance News board located in the main atrium.
• List posted on the Guidance section of the high school website.
• Emails are sent to senior parents with updated lists
Students are also encouraged to register with a free scholarship search on the internet such as www.fastweb.com or www.finaid.org and to check with the companies at which their parents are employed, organizations to which their parents belong, and their churches/denominational offices.
