Overview:<br />
HMTCA’s program was built on a rigorous academic foundation emphasizing two complementary disciplines: science and<br />
the arts. This thematic approach to learning allows students to engage in theater, dance, music, visual arts and literature<br />
workshops along with their inquiry-based science courses. Learning goals are well-defined and teachers honor differences<br />
in student learning styles.<br />
The Early College model offers high school students the opportunity to engage in coursework on the Trinity College<br />
campus, earning college credits before graduation, at no cost to the students or their families. The challenging core<br />
curriculum and culture of high expectations provide an environment in which students are able to excel academically and<br />
socially as they prepare for their future schooling and careers.<br />
