Counseling Program Mission
 
As a college preparatory Christian school, Trinity has a vital role in the crucial task of helping students seek and find the Lord's will for their lives where true fulfillment and joy exist.  Part of His plan may include gaining admission to the college or university that best suits them.  In an effort to give each of our students the guidance needed to accomplish this goal, Trinity offers an individualized counseling program.
 
The purpose of our program is simple: to partner with our students and their families in order to provide the spiritual and educational support needed to make the right choices for their lives upon graduating from Trinity.
 
Correspondence relating to this area should be directed to Mr. Ed Torres, Director of Academics, and Mrs. Pam Horne, Administrative Assistant.
