Ever wonder why we should continue to learn Biblical truth all the days of our lives? One would think that after a while we would have heard everything we could possibly hear about the Bible or about God. Proverbs gives us an answer to this question. True wisdom realizes and readily admits that there is always room to learn more. Solomon tells us that when you give instruction to a wise man - he becomes even wiser. The wise man lives by the truth that you can learn something from anyone if you will open your heart and mind to be taught.
What’s Happening in Class?
This week our students took part in progress learning in their scheduled math classes. These assessments will provide important information for our teachers to develop strategies to better meet the needs of students as they prepare for tests such as ACT and SAT and the next level of math learning.

DGROUPS
Discipleship Groups are back! Discipleship Groups are an integral part of spiritual growth here at Trinity. Discipleship Groups are Christ-Centered Small groups where students meet with leaders to read the Word of God, encourage one another, as well as do life together. We are excited to roll out our groups and pour into our students. Please be in prayer for the leaders and students. Specific times, locations, and topics are in the slideshow below.

Important information about Signing out/Signing in
What do you need to do?If you are using your open period and anticipate you will be back before your next class begins, then you can just leave. However, documentation needs to be turned in the morning you return if any periods are missed.
If you are leaving during your open period, but may not return before your next class, you will need to sign out and sign back in and provide communication as to why a class was missed by the next day.
Why is this necessary? It is our responsibility to have an accurate account of all students on our campus. This is also and an attendance issue*.Please know that you will have an unexcused absence if you do not sign out and sign back in without a note.Parents will get a notification for any unexcused absence each day.
Please note: Students who are absent more than ten (10) days in a class per semester may not receive credit for that course. ALL absences (excused, unexcused, suspensions) count in the total absences.
Dates to keep in mind
Friday 10/7 Remote Learning for all students Professional Development Day for Staff- each class will communicate expectations for remote learning - this is not a day off, it is just allows more flexibility in how you get the work done remotely
