School Notes
- Many factors distinguish Holy Trinity Catholic School from other schools in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and this is evident in the personal excellence of each of our students. We offer a classical education that is built around national standards, TCCB ED Catholic school requirements, and comprehensive reading, writing and math instruction.
- Our teaching philosophy is rooted in academic rigor, a structured environment that promotes discipline, accountability and respect, and one that is focused on building the confidence of every student.
- Our approach is one of progressive learning and responsibility, not teaching to the lowest common denominator.
- An accelerated math program, balanced literacy approach and introduction to the 6 +1 traits of writing workshop are key priorities. Classrooms allow for integrated learning experiences and differentiated instruction that engages students in a variety of settings.
- Faith is at the heart of the school experience. Weekly Mass or prayer services and daily religion classes build a strong Catholic foundation, and service projects provide application of social justice teachings. Specials classes include Spanish, art, music, physical education, computer lab, and library.
- The middle school program is designed to help students gain an edge in college preparation early in their academic journey. We prepare our students to take Honors, Accelerated, and Pre-AP/AP courses when they enter high school.
- As a direct result, they develop a strong work ethic, disciplined study habits, and the time management skills necessary for succeeding in rigorous course work. At the same time, they explore the world from various perspectives and assume the responsibilities of reasoning, analyzing, and understanding.

School Reviews
5 2/1/2022
Our children have attended Holy Trinity Catholic School for the last 5 years. When we moved here from out of state, we were immediately impressed by the advanced curriculum, the opportunities for extracurricular activities, and the overwhelming sense of community. Additionally, the emphasis on faith and service to our community is exactly what we were looking for. Now that I have a child in high school, I can also see how prepared she was for that transition thanks to the teachers and staff at HTCS. I highly recommend HTCS to any family considering Catholic education.

I have two daughters that are current students at Holy Trinity Catholic School and we have been at the school for over 7 years. We have been very impressed by the amazing and invested teachers and staff, the advanced curriculum, and the welcoming community. HTCS is a smaller school setting and this allows the teachers to really get to know their students. There are lots of community events, sports for older students, and extracurricular clubs and activities for all ages. We are really pleased with the Religion component of the curriculum and have watched their Catholic faith expand and increase over the years. I highly recommend this school to others and we are thankful for HTCS!

Holy Trinity Catholic School offers an amazing education. All 4 of my children have now graduated from HTCS, and as I watch them navigate high school and college, I see the many tools they developed at Holy Trinity and how those tools allow them to be successful. The money spent on tuition is one of the best investments I have ever made for my children and their futures! I highly recommend this school.
