Overview
Holy Trinity School is a Catholic, co-educational, elementary school (PreK-8) that is committed to the Jesuit traditions of academic excellence, the service of faith and the promotion of justice.
Our community - school and parish families - seeks to develop students who will manifest these traditions in an awareness of self, a love of learning and a desire to serve others. We prepare our students to act with initiative and integrity and to engage the world as a place in which God can found in all things.
Based in NW Washington DC, Lowell School is an intentionally-designed, diverse educational community that embraces individuality, curiosity, and courage.
Lowell students thrive because we are committed to progressive pedagogy, where our multidisciplinary academic program and our social-emotional curriculum are inextricably linked. Guided by our innovative, expert, and thoughtful educators, our children become confident, resilient, and highly-motivated learners who can fully engage in an abundance of rich, integrated, and multifaceted learning experiences. Lowell empowers children to use their voices and strengths in pursuit of a more just world.
Our graduates are uniquely prepared to navigate challenges, embrace opportunities that lie ahead, and affect positive change in our communities.
