What Trinity School, Atlanta does

Trinity School is an independent, co-educational elementary school located at 4301 Northside Parkway NW in Atlanta, Georgia, operating continuously since 1951 and serving children ages three through Sixth Grade. The school is structured around two academic divisions: the Early Elementary Division (Early Learners through First Grade) and the Upper Elementary Division (Second through Sixth Grade), with a dedicated Learning Team supporting student needs. Beyond core academics, Trinity offers enrichment and supplementary programs including Summer Camp, Extended Programs for before/after-school care, the Overend Learning Commons library, a Sustainability Program, and Trinity Television (TTV), a Sixth Grade-operated broadcast program. A middle school placement service supports Sixth Grade graduates transitioning to secondary school.

The school's underlying technology stack is built on Blackbaud's mySchoolApp platform, which provides the parent/student portal, website, and communications management; the school also maintains active social channels (Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, YouTube TTV) and digital publications including a viewbook, Flourish Magazine, and Curriculum Guide. No proprietary AI or machine learning capabilities are evident. Trinity's go-to-market relies on a traditional admissions motion: prospective families engage through virtual tours, in-person campus visits, the admissions team, viewbooks, and a strong word-of-mouth referral channel driven by an active alumni network and parent community (TSPA).

Trinity School, Inc. is a Georgia-domiciled nonprofit organization governed by a Board of Trustees. Revenue derives primarily from tuition (undisclosed publicly) supplemented by The Trinity Fund annual giving program, which raised $1,442,407 in 2025–2026 with 95% parent participation and 100% faculty/staff participation. Additional revenue streams include the annual Spotlight on Art auction and market event (running since 1982, featuring over 400 artists), the Georgia Tax Credit Program administered in partnership with Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program (over $3,000,000 cumulative since 2009), and multiple named endowment funds supporting faculty excellence, financial assistance, and school programs. The school has been recognized as a Top Workplace by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for seven consecutive years (2019–2025).
