As a former student I couldn't recommend this school to anyone. Parents would send their kids from all over the island from districts as far as 15 miles away. Never made any sense too me. Long island has good public schools some excellent. Some students were expelled from other catholic schools in the area and trinity would accept them. This is something other catholic schools would not do including the ones they came from. A lot of kids who went there misbehaved and bullying was common. I was attacked my freshman year and they said nothing could be done because I waited three days too report. I was embarrassed that it happened and that's why I had waited. I really should have left earlier than I did and I regret my decision. Some students claimed they didn't take the catholic high school entrance exam too get in. I cannot confirm this is true but it surprised me. I would recommend parents choose another private school or just go to public school. I went too public school after and I thought the education was the same if not better in some cases. If catholic schools were a better choice at one point seems like they are not now.
Renowned for offering numerous, challenging AP courses to qualified students; excellent preparation for college; students bonded in family atmosphere; great principal.
This school has it all: Smaller classes, AP programs for entry into the better universities, truly dedicated teachers, intelligent attitudes, amazing clubs for the children, impressive fields, and well established sports programs. Keep up the great work! Far better than KMS in Uniondale so definitely better than other Catholic schools. Our commute is further but well worth it!
holy trinity high school cannot be compared with other catholic high schools. they are literally an glorify hicksville high school. if you live in hicksville some people only use trinity cause of convenience. you should not. there discipline does not compare to the other catholic h.s.. they dont enforce them to go to mass. the students are not respectful. i have spoken to several parents and they all agree that there is no discipline. the way they dress for school sloppy and does not get them ready for college or the real world. so if your a catholic and looking for a good and decent high school make sure you check all aspects of the other schools. its your money and you want the best for your dollar, trinity is one of themost expensive high schools. if youlive in hicksville and your child wants trinity you might as well go tohicksvill high school.
Holy Trinity is the quintessential Catholic High School. It provides a dynamic combination of high academic standards (especially for students accepted into AP or Honors courses) and sound Christian discipline set in real-world situations (that is, co-ed and diverse enrollment.) Trinity's teaching staff is second-to-none! Their dedication and expertise are imparted to each student, regardless of Regents or Honors level. Honors students are encouraged to strive for Advanced Regents diplomas. Since our teachers do not prepare nor influence these comprehensive tests, they teach us how to apply the course information, and not just memorize it. Their devotion never waivered(even without a contract with the Diocese.) They continued to come in early and stay after school for anyone who wanted extra help. Holy Trinity is a family. HTHS is a complete Christian experience that fully prepared me for the challenges I'll have in college and thereafter.
Holy Trinity offers challenging Honors courses, taught by outstanding teachers who encourage and demand excellence. A/P courses further prepare qualified students for their college years. Spiritual guidance and a warm, family atmosphere are part of the total Trinity experience.
I was graduate many many years ago and absolutely loved my high school years. After moving away and returning to the area 4 years ago, I began to re-connect through the Alumni program and now my daughter will be attending this fall. I can honestly say that the loving and nurturing environment has not changed one bit since my days. I let my daughter make her own decision - we visited Our Lady of Mercy and St. Anthony's - she was completely sold on Trinity and I know that she will have the same unbelievable experience in high school that I had. I would recommend this school to anyone that wants a nurturing, warm, supportive and accepting environment for their children as they prepare for college.
Highly-competitive honors & A/P courses, with dedicated, highly-qualified, encouraging teachers. Holy Trinity is not just a 'school'; it's an 'experience' that prepares young men and women to face the challenges of college. Great friendships were formed during my years at HTHS. I will forever be grateful to my Trinity family.
I commend the meritorious service of HTHS teachers. After learning of Trinity's competitive Honors Program, I decided to accept the challenge. That was four years ago! The studies were rigorous, the teachers were demanding (but always fair and supportive), and my fellow-students were always competitive & spirited. I am proud to have become a strong Christian man who is prepared to meet the challenges that await me in college and in my adult life. Thank you to the entire Holy Trinity family.
Its really a good school and gets to you prepared for college. The sports are really fun and helps you get frienda, it really makes you come out your shell.
