STEWARDSHIP OF<br />

OUR MISSION<br />

<strong>Trinity</strong> <strong>School</strong>s oper<strong>at</strong>es a single budget for the<br />

nonprofit corpor<strong>at</strong>ion. With input from local heads of<br />

schools, the president presents a budget incorpor<strong>at</strong>ing<br />

each of the oper<strong>at</strong>ing expenses of the three schools<br />

and the expenses of the central office to the Board of<br />

Trustees for approval.<br />

The work of the central office involves curriculum<br />

development, teacher training, branding and<br />

messaging, and other similar functions th<strong>at</strong> are held<br />

in common by all <strong>Trinity</strong> <strong>School</strong>s. Moreover, a wide<br />

variety of practical financial m<strong>at</strong>ters such as payroll,<br />

insurance negoti<strong>at</strong>ions, and reimbursements are<br />

handled centrally to support the schools.<br />

In order to support a project or need <strong>at</strong> a local campus,<br />

<strong>Trinity</strong> <strong>School</strong>s offer a wide range of ways in which<br />

donors and generous benefactors can partner with us -<br />

financially, including restricted don<strong>at</strong>ions. All schol<br />

arship don<strong>at</strong>ions are distributed locally, all capital<br />

campaigns are local, and we have a wide variety of<br />

ongoing initi<strong>at</strong>ives <strong>at</strong> each campus. The Director of<br />

Development <strong>at</strong> each local campus works with our<br />

benefactors to find a method of giving to the school<br />

th<strong>at</strong> honors and maintains the intentions of those<br />

benefactors.<br />

The budget for the central office represents<br />

approxim<strong>at</strong>ely 6% of the overall budget of <strong>Trinity</strong><br />

<strong>School</strong>s annually.<br />
