[our students]
Boston Trinity Academy's founders set out to establish a school as diverse as Boston itself. Our students reflect an increasingly global society and create a vibrant and dynamic ethos in our classrooms and hallways. More than half our students live in the city of Boston, while many travel from a wide-range of greater Boston communities including Cambridge, Chelsea, Dedham, Newton, Revere, and Wellesley. The ethnic demographics of our students are 37 percent white, 32 percent black, 10 percent Latino, and 21 percent Asian. Eleven percent are international students coming from countries such as China, Korea, and Denmark. Thirty-two percent of our students speak a language other than English at home. Such varied perspectives enrich the learning in class discussions as well as at lunch, on the athletic fields, and after school. This aspect of Boston Trinity Academy's community prepares students to relate and listen to, and engage with, the world at large.
As a school for the city and suburbs of Boston, Boston Trinity Academy's community and program are designed to cross demographic lines. We are a school of city and suburban students. We are a school of white students and a school of students of color. We are a school of students from working-class, as well as upper middle-class, families. Our goal is to enable every qualified student to enroll irrespective of the family's financial situation. Boston Trinity Academy is a school seeking to dismantle the socioeconomic and ethnic segregation prevalent in many schools today. Students from economically and ethnically dissimilar neighborhoods are unified in their desire to achieve academically, athletically, and spiritually.
“Having a diverse student body, specifically a diverse group of friends, is important to all of us because it gives us a broader view of the world.”
