Our Diverse Community

Trinity welcomes children of diverse backgrounds and provides experiences that foster acceptance, mutual respect, trust, and cooperation among the students, their teachers, and their parents.

In 1963, Trinity School became the first racially integrated private school in Georgia. Trinity’s enduring commitment to diversity encompasses and celebrates individual value and worth and the belief and understanding that differences and varied perspectives enrich our community. Diversity is an ever-present, integrated part of our school day, our program, and our pedagogy.

We help our students find commonalities, respect differences, and think from multiple perspectives. We instill in and model for our students the following core values: acceptance, belonging, empathy, fairness, honesty, respect, responsibility, and togetherness. We value the power of dialogue, foster acceptance, and embrace an attitude of continual growth and learning for all. We guide every student to develop a strong sense of self and belonging; to treat others with dignity, fairness, and respect; and to cultivate sincere, empathetic care and concern for others. In age-appropriate ways befitting an early childhood, elementary-only school, we emphasize the importance of treating everyone with dignity and being fair, supportive, empathetic, and kind to everyone.

Trinity School respects and protects the dignity and worth of all members of its community. We are enriched by the diversity of our families, teachers, and students. Learning derives from listening to and sharing one another’s stories. Integrated throughout the curriculum, diversity is celebrated each day, and students are encouraged to bring their full selves to school, to ask questions, and to be accepting of each other’s differences as an integral part of a learning community.

Trinity School guides students to take charge of their learning, encouraging them to pursue their interests in a safe and nurturing environment. We design joyful, meaningful activities and experiences that build upon students’ innate curiosity to further excite and engage them about learning. At Trinity, learning through play is an essential part of deep learning and understanding, not only in the early childhood years. While learning at Trinity is fun, purpose and intentionality, supported by educational research and the success of our graduates, undergirds all we do toward our goal of developing a strong academic and character foundation in our students.
