Trinity Academy Nominated for 2015 National Blue Ribbon School by the Council for American Private Education

Trinity Academy has received notification from the Council for American Private Education (CAPE) that they have been selected as one of CAPE’s nominees for the 2015 National Blue Ribbon Schools Program.

The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes public and private elementary, middle, and high schools based on their overall academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups. Every year the U. S. Department of Education seeks out and celebrates great American schools, schools demonstrating that all students can achieve to high levels.

CAPE is permitted to nominate up to fifty non-public schools nationwide. Trinity Academy’s Blue Ribbon application will now be submitted to the U.S. Department of Education for further review. The list of schools selected as 2015 National Blue Ribbon Schools will be announced in September, 2015.

“We are very pleased and excited that CAPE has chosen to nominate Trinity Academy for this award,” said Mary Cassels, Trinity Academy principal. “It is a testament to the hard working, talented and dedicated teachers we have here at Trinity Academy. We are anxiously waiting September’s announcement.”
