Trinity Presbyterian School

The Early Years

For the First two years oF the school’s existence, Trinity met in the Education Building of Trinity Presbyterian Church on South Hull Street while a permanent location was sought.

As eArly As 1963, members of Trinity Presbyterian Church began studying the possibility of organizing a Christian day school. After many meetings, surveys, and prayer, Trinity Presbyterian school was incorporated on February 10, 1970. For the first two years, the school met in Trinity Church’s education building while a permanent location was sought.

Trinity purchased fifteen acres off Perry Hill Road in November of 1971 at a cost of $45,000. Construction of a new road to the school location and for the foundation of the school began in January 1972. Under the leadership of architect Pat Williams and builder Jack Noble, the ambitious undertaking of constructing a school in such a short time began. Mr. Noble is on record as saying, “he truly could not have built the school in three and a half months, but the Lord could and did, so Glory be to God!”

Trinity Presbyterian School, located at 1700 East Trinity Boulevard, opened its doors on September 18, 1972, to 435 students in grades K-11. Growth in enrollment and programs prompted many additions to the campus over the next 50 years. Trinity now occupies 32 acres, and houses outstanding academic, fine arts, and athletic spaces.
