Yearbooks Bring Back Memories

Students Enjoying the 2011 Yearbook on August 24
I was surprised when my daughter, Charlotte (TES C' 2007), picked up a copy of the 2011 Trinity Yearbook and poured through it eagerly, thoughtfully, and with lots of smiles.  She's a graduate of Ball High beginning her freshman year at A&M, but despite the distance of years, Trinity's yearbook is still a draw for her.  Not simply a photographic record of a particular year, our yearbook displays the most important traditions of the school.  For generations, familiar annual events have marked the landscape of our calendar: Carnival, class trips, Lessons and Carols, the 5th Grade play, May Fete, Green and Gold games, and Graduation come to mind.  My daughter's smiles tell me she easily returns to the good memories of her days at Trinity.  We should not miss just how important school memories are to our graduates!  In this day and age when a plethora of school choices have risen overnight, Trinity stands out as a place of time-honored traditions.  The various activities portrayed in our yearbook together celebrate life, faith, the innocence of childhood, and the strength of a God-centered, academically-oriented community.  I'm thankful every day for what my children received at TES.

We have some extra yearbooks available at the time of this writing.  The cost is $40 per book and we would love to see them all go to our current families and alumni.
