Trinity Prep Magazine | Summer 2024 A Publication of Trinity Preparatory School of Florida We knew we had started something special when we opened our doors in 1968 to 173 students. Since then, we have created an educational institution that has it all – a dynamic curriculum and college guidance program that prepare students for a life of leadership, a winning athletic program, an outstanding fine arts program, and the space to grow spiritually. From this, we have developed something priceless along the way: our wonderful students, amazing faculty and staff, prepared alumni, supportive parents and grandparents, and friends – all of whom have worked to make an impact in our world.

Letter From Head of School Dear Trinity Family, As I begin my ninth year as head of school at Trinity Prep, we sit on the precipice of change-the Sankar Science Center. Changing the architecture of learning on our campus will bring about many planned and, of course, some unplanned transitions. This ongoing build is a time to reflect on the past and celebrate Central Florida’s long-standing commitment to Trinity Prep’s mission, leadership, students, and families while we look to the future.

Change is good.

We are changing from a school to an institution.

Anyone reading this letter knows Trinity Prep promotes leadership development, encourages ethical behavior at school and beyond, and reinforces the highest standards of respect, dignity, integrity, character, and academic development. Anyone reading this letter understands that we are increasingly leaning into our obligation to develop the whole child in mind, body, and spirit. This activity makes the campus exciting, messy, dynamic, and full of excellent, deep, fruitful, and challenging relationships.

Throughout the year, staff, faculty, and volunteers organize school events and functions that promote and honor the complexity of the human experience- sometimes our own and often those of others.

Connecting with others requires a concerted effort.

•

Our teachers foster an inquiry-based classroom environment that values open communication, embracing the diversity of thought and perspective we seek in a rich and stimulating intellectual environment.

•

We empower our students to lead, manage, and execute small and large-scale events that convey knowledge and understanding and develop a sense of ownership, purpose, and passion.

•

Our families enhance the Trinity Experience by preparing each student’s home environment and our campus for the ever-evolving developmental process.

•

We seek and maintain contact with our alumni and encourage them to return, reengage, and share their stories of the world beyond 5700 Trinity Prep Lane.

Byron M. Lawson Jr. Head of School

We empower our students to lead, manage, and execute small and largescale events that convey knowledge and understanding and develop a sense of ownership, purpose, and passion.

Two months ago, we said goodbye to the 132 members of the Class of 2024. Just like graduating classes before them, they excelled in every way possible. For a relatively small school, we produce a disproportionate number of graduates who will go on to be movers and shakers in their chosen professions – Broadway stars, surgeons, scientific researchers, professional athletes, noted authors, professional musicians. These are just some of the beautiful outcomes of an institution thriving in pursuit of excellence in all things.

HISTORY OF THE TRINITY PREP CREST

Est. 1968

INTRODUCING TRINITY PREP'S UPDATED SCHOOL CREST The revamped crest is a culmination of previous versions and a dedication to our founding leaders. The symbol in the center is a modern derivative of the original Chi Rho established in 1968 by our founder and first Headmaster, Canon A. Rees Hay. The red in the shield is from the color of that original crest.

In this new version, the Chi Rho is flanked by an iteration of our current Fleur de Lis, encompassed in a timeless shield, and accented by laurel.

The new crest is paired with our official full name, Trinity Preparatory School of Florida.

The festivities kicked off with “Honk for HOCO,” energizing the campus and community. Students donned their most creative outfits for this year’s spirit week dress-up day lineup, which included squad day, BarbenHeimer day ("Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" movie matchup), and Adam Sandler day. Rounding out the week, students wore head-totoe Trinity blue and gold and were ready to cheer on the football team’s Friday night Homecoming game match-up with Cornerstone Charter Academy.

Trinity Prep's Annual

Author Fest

By Rachael Gryder, Library Clerk Coming up on its 10th anniversary in 2025, The Trinity Prep Author Festival is a consistent highlight of the school year. More than just a fun way to spend an afternoon, the Author Fest exemplifies Trinity’s commitment to serving its students and its community. Various Middle Grade and Young Adult authors—from up-and-coming local writers to NYT bestsellers—are invited to our campus for an afternoon to meet students, sign books, and talk about the writing process. This free event is open to the public and available to stream online, making it accessible for young writers and readers beyond Trinity and has reached thousands in the United States and countries like Canada, the UK, and Nigeria. Additionally, the Trinity Prep Author Fest previously partnered with the Boys and Girls Club of Central Florida to provide books and support directly to the community.

The invited authors are always enthusiastic about encouraging students in their love of reading and writing. Some guests, like 2024’s keynote speaker Nic Stone, are already a part of Trinity Prep's curriculum, making the festival more meaningful to students as they can engage with the authors 18 | TR I NI TY PREP MAGA ZINE

We invite grandparents to spend a memorable morning with their grandchildren each year, attending classes, enjoying breakfast, and celebrating the special connection that unites them with the Trinity family.

The day began with a warm welcome and delicious breakfast provided by dozens of hardworking parent volunteers, creating a perfect opportunity for grandparents to reconnect with their grandchildren and share stories.

I feel a deep sense of love and optimism for you.”

In the picturesque setting of the Quad, the new graduates took their place around the rock and concluded the ceremony with the time-honored tradition of passing the diplomas. As each graduate received their diploma, the air was filled with tears, cheers, and new beginnings.

Engaging the World AP Language Classes Drive Change Through Service-Learning

By Vanessa Pelletier Spallone, World Language Department Chair What sets Trinity Prep’s AP French and Spanish Language courses apart is the integration of a servicelearning component through the College Board’s educational partner, WE Service. This program fosters student engagement by allowing them to apply their language skills beyond the classroom, impacting their local community and the world through raising awareness, fundraising, problem solving, and volunteering.

This year, our AP French students faced the challenge of following up on a successful project with Touareg

cooperative in Francophone Niger, Africa. After extensive discussions, the class embarked on a collective WE Service project once again, eager to work together.

To inspire students to find a cause they were passionate about, we began by exploring the United Nations’ seventeen Sustainable Development Goals in the target language. These goals address global challenges such as poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace, and justice.

As students engaged with the U.N. website, they

6. Share their experiences with the community during a school assembly to generate interest and excitement for their fundraiser.

This process allowed students to practice the AP French exam components, such as email and conversation, and develop essential world language skills, including cultural comparisons, interpretive reading and listening, and presentational speaking and writing. They also honed their leadership skills.

The crepe sale served as a team-building exercise, and donating to a cause they were passionate about brought a sense of achievement and happiness.

practiced their interpretive reading skills, and the excitement grew about potential projects.

With many ocean and science enthusiasts in the class, Goal 14, “Life Below Water,” (conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development), emerged as the chosen cause. Students then identified two Francophone non-profit organizations with related missions: L’ASSOMER in Martinique and the Madagascar Whale Shark Project in Nosy Be, Madagascar. Additionally, students had the opportunity to connect with Christelle Hyacinthe, a French Marine Science researcher at the University of Georgia Department of Marine Sciences, during her lab’s expedition on the Atlantis (WHOI) in the Gulf of California.

At the end of the school year, students organized a French crepe sale, raising $700 for the NGOs. The crepe sale served as a team-building exercise, and donating to a cause they were passionate about brought a sense of achievement and happiness. The class proudly adopted “Chouchou,” French for "darling," their very own Madagascar whale shark and will receive updates on its whereabouts.

As a teacher, I was also delighted to bridge my AP French class with our science department by involving Independent Science Research students and their teacher in one of our video calls.

With qualified French-speaking interlocutors, students undertook the following steps: 1. Study the mission of the selected non-profit organizations and UGA ocean expedition goals.

2. Research the culture and environmental challenges of each region.

3. Write emails in the target language to arrange virtual meetings with the NGOs and scientists.

4. Prepare questions in the target language for video calls.

5. Take and refine notes from the video calls.

A Legacy of Excellence The Trinity Voice's Award-Winning Year Trinity Prep’s student-run magazine, The Trinity Voice, has once again elevated our school's reputation in scholastic journalism. The monthly publication plays a crucial role in the school community. It serves as a vital platform connecting students, staff, faculty, alumni, and the community at large. By covering a wide range of topics–from sports and features to news and opinion pieces–the magazine reflects the diverse interests and voices within the school. It fosters a sense of unity and pride, offering students a space to express their perspectives and share accomplishments.

In the early months of the 2023-24 school year, two of its members, Olivia Kortman '24 and David Hull ’25, were honored in the National Scholastic Press Association Clips & Clicks Fall Contest. Olivia Kortman ’24, with her first-place news photo, and David Hull ’25, with his honorable mention in the sports category, have showcased their exceptional talents and contributed to the collective achievement of our Trinity Prep community.

The accolades didn't stop there. The Saints who contribute to The Trinity Voice have also garnered national awards from the International High School Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, which celebrates individual student initiatives and achievements in journalism. David Hull was named Sports Writer of the Year and placed second in Sports Feature Writing nationwide. Sammy Lou ’26 secured second place as Features Writer of the Year, and Lucy Chong ’26 earned third place as Designer of the Year. These achievements reflect our students' high caliber and dedication to journalistic excellence.

The Trinity Voice performed outstandingly at the Florida Scholastic Press Association (FSPA) conference. Four Trinity Prep students were among the few student presenters, sharing the stage typically reserved for advisors and professional journalists. The Trinity Voice earned three major awards: David Steinberg ’25 was named Sports Journalist of the Year, Nikhil Daniel ’26 was recognized as Emerging Journalist of the Year, and Laziza Talipova ’25 won first place in Feature Writing. Collectively, the staff was honored as an AllFlorida Publication and a Sunshine State Standout, amassing over 61 awards ranging from “Honorable Mention” to “Best of the Best!”

These achievements are a testament to the unwavering commitment of the magazine’s staff and its advisor, Erin Miller, who recently received the Claes Nobel Educator of Distinction award from the National Society of High School Scholars. This recognition and her District 3 Teacher of the Year award from the FSPA for the second consecutive year underscore her pivotal role in guiding our students to remarkable heights. Her dedication enhances the educational experience and secured $1,000 for classroom materials, further creating an enriched learning environment.

The Trinity Voice stands as a shining example of what student journalism can achieve with passion, support, and exceptional mentorship. It highlights our students' remarkable talents and strengthens our community's bonds, creating a legacy of excellence and connection that extends far beyond the school gates.

Letter From Alumni Relations Dear Trinity Family, We love the excitement that accompanies the start of the school year, from welcoming new students and teachers to catching up with colleagues and friends, to looking ahead and marking our calendars with all the plans for the new school year. And have we got plans for you! Our calendar is filling up with chances to get together and share time, memories, and experiences. Along with our regular events– Homecoming, Golden T Classic, Jingle Mingle, Reunion Weekend–we’re bringing back the Bear Gully Bash Night Golf Event, several regional alumni gatherings, and a couple of special class reunions. Clip out the list of events or scan the QR code, and mark your calendars, too!

In addition to attending events, we are so appreciative of the many ways our alumni stay in touch–and give back.

From alumni scientists coming to the classroom in our series, “Saints Talking Science” (more on that program will be in the next magazine), to alumni presenters representing their college alma maters and other special awards at Upper School Special Awards Night, to alumni establishing endowed scholarships: these are just a few of the ways our alumni engage. Our alumni are true Saints! In the months to come, we will share with you more opportunities for even more engagement.

We’ve got much to prepare and plan for, and that brings me to the high point of this letter: a welcome to Hannah Parker Schuttler ’13 as our new alumni associate! Now this is not cause for panic: Hannah will still be rocking it in the classroom as an amazing teacher and as the Diane and Michael Maher English Endowed Chair, with regular teaching duties. And to those of you who have graced our softball field, you know that she won’t be able to stay away from the dugout, either. But she’s agreed to take on an additional role as support for the Alumni Office. As our alumni base grows, we want to keep up–and keep up with you! And who better to involve you in the conversation than Hannah?

Elizabeth Lowndes McIntosh ’78 Director of Leadership Giving and Donor Relations, Alumni Relations

We love the excitement that accompanies the start of the school year, from welcoming new students and teachers to catching up with colleagues and friends, to looking ahead and marking our calendars with all the plans for the new school year.

As we look forward to an enhanced alumni experience, we hope you will, too. Join us here, there, and everywhere–we never tire of seeing you. And if you can’t join us in person, follow us on social media. And do send us your latest news.

The family wants to know what is happening with you.

Jingle Mingle On Thursday, December 21, 2023, Trinity Prep hosted an alumni-focused Jingle Mingle festivity to ring in the holiday season! Many alumni, faculty, and staff spent the evening at Firebirds Wood Fired Grille for a night filled with catered delights and fun activities. Participants were spread across 36 years of matriculation from our school as members from the Class of 1983 to the Class of 2019 were in attendance.

Our next Jingle Mingle event will take place on December 19, 2024 – and we would love for all our Alumni to come home and attend!

Reunion Weekend Trinity Prep alumni from the past 30 years reunited for the 2024 Reunion Weekend. It was a nostalgic time of reconnecting as we welcomed alumni back to where it all began. This year's events marked milestone reunions for the classes ending in fours and nines, with a special celebration for the 50th reunion of the Class of 1974.

ALL ALUMNI REUNION The weekend kicked off on Friday evening with the yearly All Alumni Reception at the Winter Park Farmers Market. The venue was abuzz with excitement as guests savored a delightful catered meal. Laughter, reconnection, and shared stories filled the air, creating an electric atmosphere. The night was made extra special with the presence of retiring faculty members Lynn Wilbur and Georgia Parker. Old friends caught up, new connections were forged, and everyone reminisced about their time at Trinity Prep, making it a truly unforgettable evening.

ALUMNI BASKETBALL GAME The next morning, alumni gathered on campus at the Race Athletic Center for a friendly basketball game.

Former Trinity Prep coach Mike Spatola returned with his trademark enthusiasm and expertise, to be recognized and honored by former athletes.

Participants laced up their sneakers and hit the court, while others cheered from the sidelines.

The energy was palpable as players and spectators alike reveled in the friendly competition and shared passion for the sport. It was more than just a game; it was an opportunity to relive the glory days and strengthen the bonds that tie us all to Trinity Prep.

CLASS OF 1974 CHI RHO SOCIETY INDUCTION One of the most touching moments of the weekend was the induction of the Class of 1974 into the prestigious Chi Rho Society. This special ceremony took place on Saturday afternoon both on campus and via Zoom to celebrate alumni who have reached their 50th reunion. Members of the Class of 1974 were celebrated with a pinning ceremony, marking their lasting connection to Trinity Prep. The gathering included a campus tour, a delicious meal, and sharing fond memories while flipping through S U M ME R 2 0 2 4 | 6 9

yearbooks. It was a heartfelt occasion highlighting the enduring bonds formed during their time at Trinity Prep, with laughter echoing across campus, a testament to the profound impact being a Saint has had on its students.

As we look forward to future reunions, we invite you to join us in upholding the school's legacy and ensure its continued success. The connections we foster and the memories we cherish help to perpetuate the spirit of Trinity Prep, motivating and influencing future generations of Saints.

In Memoriam JAMES “JIM” ARNOLD Former Faculty Member

December 3, 2023

Jim was born in 1938. He attended Yale University, where he received his undergraduate degree in math. He also sang with the Whiffenpoofs, the world’s oldest and best known collegiate a cappella group. He received his master’s degree in mathematics from Bowdoin College.

Jim taught math at The Lawrenceville School, Menlo School (CA), Howey-inthe-Hills, Virginia Episcopal School, and Trinity Preparatory School. He retired from Trinity after more than ten years (1985-1995), teaching math and computer science and coaching track. He sang and acted with Orlando Opera for 12 seasons and at many community theaters. Jim is survived by one son, three grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, and longtime partner Linda Fessel.

JERRY R. LINSCOTT Former Trustee

June 24, 2024

Jerry was born in Falls City, Nebraska in 1941. He graduated from the University of Nebraska as a business major. Six months into his first post-graduate job, a high school friend persuaded Jerry to join him at the University of Nebraska College of Law, from which he graduated in 1966.

Jerry thrived in law school, setting the path of a legal career that continued for 56 years until his retirement at the end of 2022. He practiced law in Kansas City, Missouri for five years before moving to Orlando in 1971, starting his own firm soon thereafter that grew into Young, Turnbull, and Linscott and merged with Cleveland-based BakerHostetler in 1979. Jerry practiced first in securities and later as a litigator.

Beyond his unquenchable passion for the law – practicing it, litigating it, and living it – Jerry had many other talents. He was hugely loved, and he loved his family deeply. He is survived by his wife, Theresa, by his sons, Palmer ‘07, Mark, and Todd, and by six grandchildren.

Keep watch, Lord God, over all your Saints; lead us to embrace You as the source of all Truth. Bless the whole Trinity family; fill us with Your Word and Wisdom. Guide us by your Holy Spirit; may everything that we say and do bring honor and glory to Your Holy Name. Amen.

Letter From Development Dear Saints Family and Friends, I’m not sure that I could have picked a more exciting time to join the Trinity Prep community. In the short time I have been on campus, I’ve interacted with students, alumni, faculty, and staff, witnessed the unique traditions that accompany commencement, and just recently watched the campus reimagination process begin with the groundbreaking of the Nochur Sankar Science Center.

I have been quick to learn that Trinity Prep values are omnipresent. Trinity Family, Educational Excellence, Academic and Extracurricular, Leadership and Character Development, Faith, and Spirituality are encountered daily.

I’m encouraged and motivated by seeing these values coming to life on campus and in the community.

One of our goals this year is greater engagement within the Trinity community. We are rolling out a Corporate Partnerships program that is a mutually beneficial business opportunity for those who want to promote their organization while still supporting our school's exceptional academic and extra-curricular activities.

In an additional effort to grow and streamline our giving efforts this school year, we will be completing one request: the Trinity Prep Fund. In past years, families have had options to contribute to our Boosters and Patrons organizations, among other groups. This year, all our families will experience the benefits of those groups without a membership fee. We hope the money you previously considered for those organizations will be directed to the Trinity Prep Fund, where you will be able to designate the direction of your gift. The options will include athletics, arts, faculty professional development, and more.

With the support of Every Family, Every Year, we know that Trinity Prep’s future is bright.

Shane Hendry Director of Development and Annual Giving

I’m genuinely excited about what's next for Trinity Prep. Please know you are a large part of that. I look forward to connecting with you all and working together to create the best experience for today’s and tomorrow’s Saints.

Rallying for a cause Fleur de Lis Cup's Wimbledon in Winter Park Tennis anyone? Trinity Prep’s biennial Fleur de Lis Cup Tennis Tournament and fundraiser was an ace in the hole this year, not just serving up outstanding tennis but also bringing together tennis enthusiasts and supporters in support of Trinity Prep and its mission.

This year’s event, “Wimbledon in Winter Park,” was organized by the Marketing and Development teams and the Trinity Parent Organization to support the Trinity Prep Fund. Co-chaired by Stacey Demetriades and Karen Gilmer, with enthusiastic participation from players and spectators, the event truly embodied the spirit of unity and collaboration Interlachen Country Club in Winter Park provided the perfect backdrop as attendees donned their tennis whites and enjoyed the traditional Wimbledon strawberries and cream. “Not only was outstanding tennis being played, but we also had great success with our silent auction, due to the generosity of local merchants, Trinity Prep, and the community at large,” said Ms. Gilmer. More than 20 items were auctioned throughout the afternoon, including tennis lessons and equipment, local merchant gift cards, and senior parking spots.

78 | TR I NI TY PREP MAGA ZINE

In a delightful twist, traditional winners were not named this year. “One of the things we loved the most was that this year, we did not declare any winners, but instead, we were able to surprise a few unsuspecting players with unusual awards,” said Ms. Gilmer. Having fun with the awards helped to make the event a laidback and enjoyable experience.

In the end, Wimbledon in Winter Park was a smash hit. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to its success. With such strong participation from the community, there’s confidence that next year’s auction will continue to strengthen the bonds between the school and Central Florida.
