Through the vision and efforts of dedicated Boston area leaders in the spheres of finance, education, and faith, Boston Trinity Academy opened its doors in September 2002. These founders shared a common goal to address one of the greatest needs for the young people of Boston — a rigorous college preparatory school accessible to students from all neighborhoods, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Beginning in 2000, these visionaries began to plan for a school that would inspire young people to set the highest standards, gain wisdom, and live a life of faith — a school rooted not only in academic excellence and intellectual curiosity but also in a deep Christian faith.
In 2002, Boston Trinity Academy was launched with 54 students in grades 6-9 in a rented school building on Beacon Street in Brookline. Adding a grade each year the school soon grew to 125 students, and in June 2006, the first senior class of 16 graduated — all college bound. As these young people were preparing to go to college, the school purchased its own facility, formerly a Catholic elementary school, and moved to an expansive five-acre campus in Boston‘s Hyde Park neighborhood. In September 2006, 160 students in grades 6-12 first entered the doors of our 17 Hale Street school building. During the current 2009-10 school year, 215 students attend Boston Trinity Academy.
The mission of Boston Trinity Academy is to educate students on the basis of a Christian worldview and to promote high academic achievement and character development founded on the love of Jesus Christ. Boston Trinity Academy actively recruits a student body that reflects Boston‘s richly diverse communities and is committed to the proposition that a strong faith culture and a demanding academic program can unite a student body with social, economic, and racial differences. In partnership with parents and the community, the Academy seeks to produce graduates distinguished by their intellect, integrity, service, and moral vision.
