School Notes

  • Founded in 1709, Trinity School challenges the minds, fires the imagination and trains the bodies of New York city boys and girls.
  • Trinity's mission, stated in carefully considered terms, is essentially to provide its students with a setting—intellectual, moral, and physical—in which they can pursue the elements of a liberal education.
  • We understand the idea of liberal education is: reading and writing accurately and truthfully; being curious and critical-minded; opening our minds to the ideas of others; questioning authority; maintaining self-respect and respect for the other.
