Trinity is a wonderful school that is focused on education and team spirit. Students have pride in their school and Teachers are dedicated to education.
If your child has any aspirations about Baseball......do not send him to this school. You must be in the IB program to get any where with academics.

Trinity is a wonderful school. The teachers and staff are wonderful and seem to really care about teaching and caring for the students. The pride that the students, alumni and community show towards Trinity shows what a wonderful school it really is.
As a graduate of Trinity High School, I can honestly say that it was a great school to attend. The teachers were helpful and the environment as a whole made it an enjoyable experience.
My five children graduated from Trinity and all are very accomplished...besides Trinity has a terrific football team and Euless loves Trinity.

I love Trinity. My son recently graduated from Trinity High School. He attended 10-12 and I was very impressed with the teachers, counselors and staff. There was this one teacher Mr. Montelago (not sure the spelling) that encouraged my son when everyone else had pretty much given up on him. His counselor found ways for him to earn the most credits in the amount of time he had remaining in school, signed him up for co-op so he could earn more credits. Even down the last trimester - his teachers would call me if he was missing an assignment. They do everything to help their students succeed. They work with the students and parents...I don't know where he would be if he had not been at Trinity. They truly care about the kids.

Collage preparation is great at this school, there are long term planning for the kids that want it. AP and IB programs available.

Academically the school is great, however the staff and community are lacking on teaching the children about diversity. The area is mostly minority and it seems that with such a diverse group of children, Tongan, Samoan, Asian, Latino and African Americans, you would hope that the district would recognize this. Given the current state of the world and our President Elect, you would think Trinity and the surrounding HEB school district would embrace this fact and be the leader of schools throughout the United States.

I graduated from this school in 2008 and am currently a biochemistry and philosophy major at the University of Texas at Dallas. I can easily say that Trinity is one of the best public high schools in the country and is one of the most unique as well. Academics: Trinity has extremely strong Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate Diploma Programmes. Teachers at Trinity are truly unique and most have advanced degrees. They have years of experience at Trinity specifically (THS has a very low turnover rate) and serve not just as educators, but mentors and friends as well. EC: Football, choir, and photography are consistently dominant nationwide and Trinity shows excellence outside the classroom as well. Culture: Multi-building layout and independent laid-back culture prepare students for college in many ways. School is very ethnically and financially diverse but avoids common problems of other diverse suburban schools. Go Trojans~!

I am also a 2008 graduate of THS, I concur with my fellow classmate in recommending Trinity. Trinity's classes, diversity, and great faculty have greatly prepared for my college career at Southern Methodist University. The great quality of Trinity teachers and staff have molded many of my peers' minds to succeed-and indeed we are all doing so.

As a 2008 graduate of THS, I highly recommend this school and HEBISD in general. The high school acts as one big racially diverse family. The faculty is excellent and everyone has the students' best interests at heart. As a freshman student at Howard University, I find myself thoroughly prepared for the college workload and lifestyle. BE A TROJAN!
Some schools are known only for how much money they put into their sports program, but I'm very impressed with how well rounded the programs are at Trinity. Besides being state champions in 5A Football, they offer many Advanced Placement classes, as well as the International Baccalaureate Programme, which is a prestigious advanced high school program that is widely recognized by the world s leading universities and that only a few schools in Texas are currently offering. We are very privileged to have a superintendent who strives to keep our school district curriculum competitive with the global economy!

This is a better school than many outside HEB would give it credit for. The teachers are terrifice, the athletics are, obviously, spectacular and the choir program is awesome - I think the band was really good in the 80's and 90's, but haven't heard much lately (though the Bell band rocks..but I digress). Great community, good district, aged buildling, but nice overall.

My husband and I both graduated from Trinity and we were certain we wanted our children to attend Trinity. Our son is a sophomore and has flourished in the welcoming and involved atmosphere at THS. Active in choir, band, student council and honor society he is certain there is an organization for everyone. The teachers give the students opportunities to succeed and are available daily for remediation. There is a diverse population that allows for positive interaction among all groups. A robust parent volunteer network supports the faculty and allows for greater understanding of the students daily live. The campus layout also prepares the students for college life. Our family is very pleased to be involved at THS. GO TROJANS!

Trinity High School is easily one of the best public high schools in the country. Academics: Unlike wealthier schools that focus on the TAKS test to attain practically worthless ratings, Trinity is known for high level of achievement shown by the inclusion of the Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate Programmes. Its teachers have many years of experience and are very skilled in their chosen specialties. Extracurricular: Trinity is known for its 5A State Champion football team, TMEA Honor Choirs, award-winning band and many other distinguished EC activities. Atmosphere: Trinity boasts an open multibuilding campus flourishing with plenty of plant life and natural light. Its student population is very diverse, a large portion from foreign countries and over 30 different languages spoken. Most come from varied religous and ethnic backgrounds.

'All hail to thee our Trinity...our alma mater true!' As I gaze into the years gone by from my over-the-hillside view, I remember teachers that were involved with the kids. They were always available during their periods off and after school to help with classwork or just talk about life. The staff at THS loved teenagers (and it showed) or they wouldn't be there! I know Mr. Murray isn't there anymore, but I'm sure these three classes are still in good hands. We live in a neighboring school district now, but I would still definitely recommend THS to any family considering Euless for their new home. Still true to my school, Former Trojan

I graduated from this school. It can be intimidating and stressful for the shy but overall, a really good school and your kids should have a pretty good experience.
