About The Trinity Preparatory School Of Florida

Trinity Preparatory School is an independent,

coeducational, college preparatory school that helps students excel in

college and in life, contribute to their communities, lead in a changing

society, and grow spiritually. In alignment with our mission, we affirm our

commitment to our core values: Trinity Family; Educational Excellence, both

Academic and Extracurricular; Leadership and Character Development; and Faith

and Spirituality.

Founded in 1968, a dedicated group of Orlando community leaders

led by the late Reverend Canon A. Rees Hay wanted to provide a quality,

independent secondary education for students in Central Florida. As a result,

they established the Trinity Preparatory School in grades six through twelve.

Affiliated with the Episcopal Church, we welcome families and students from all

faith traditions, cultures, and backgrounds, knowing that we are all enhanced

by diversity.

Our devoted and notable faculty and staff are leaders in their

field who share their knowledge and expertise with others at various

professional development opportunities worldwide. Their dedication is

demonstrated to our students, families, and communities both inside and outside

of the classroom with a balance of academic rigor and wellness. Trinity’s

student body and families reflect the world as they travel from the greater

Orlando area and across the nation to take part in the Trinity

experience.

A full-time position at Trinity Prep consists of

serving as an advisor, teaching 5 classes, and assuming additional duties as

assigned. For example, all faculty are expected to have a plus one, which is a

major leadership responsibility outside of the classroom.
