School Notes:

  • The curriculum at Boston Trinity Academy pushes every student to achieve the most they can by setting high expectations and providing rich opportunities for learning.
  • The academic rigor begins in the 6th grade, where students study English for 90 minutes a day, reading quality literature, and focusing on producing great pieces of writing.
  • Continuing through the upper school, it is required that each student successfully complete a minimum of four Advanced Placement courses by the time they graduate. []Seniors are required to write and defend a dissertation to complete their Biblical studies curriculum. Senior Synthesis:Christianity and Culture is an award-winner program which challenges students to address a societal issue and then defend their stance before a panel of university professors
  • BTA utilizes the rich educational resources of Boston as a part of the curriculum. From attending lectures at local universities to visits to museums, the Academy believes that there is much to learn from the city of Boston. The BTA faculty and administration are also committed to providing opportunities for students to study beyond Boston. Through the Trinity Institute for Leadership and Social Justice students have the opportunity to visit other countries where BTA supports education initiatives. During summer, 2008, one group of students traveled to Nepal as another visited South Africa. There is also an annual cultural trip to Europe during the spring break.
  • Boston Trinity Academy seeks to encourage its students to strive not only intellectually, but also physically and creatively. Our competitive athletic program teaches students how to handle success and failure with grace and humility. Similarly, our Arts program affords students the opportunity to study both visual and performing arts.
  • We strive to develop moral integrity along with the traditional virtues of courage, wisdom, self-restraint, and kindness in our students by teaching and modeling these and other elements of good character. All students are required to subscribe to our Honor Code and encouraged to participate in community service.
