Students:

Rev. Barnhill will lead us in chapel on Wednesday at 11:30. All are welcome to join us.

Congratulations to Makayla Hoekstra on being selected to participate in the NWI High School Honors Orchestra. Rehearsal and the program will be held at Northwestern University on January 27, 2022.

Tuesday night at the home basketball games it will be a white out night. Come dressed in your TC white apparel and show your support for our teams. On Saturday, December 11 it will be ugly sweater attire for those home games in the afternoon.

Students have received sign-up sheets for the second semester. Please review these with your student. They are due to be turned into the office by the end of the day on Wednesday, Dec. 8. Parent signatures are required.

There will be a 2:30 dismissal on Thursday, December 9.

There is a dandy collection of lost and found items on a table in the lobby. Check it out soon! Whatever goes unclaimed will be donated to a worthy cause.

Trinity is planning an all-school trip to the Chicago area for March 16-18, 2022! We last took a trip of this nature in March of 2018, and our school’s history is to do it every four years. More details forthcoming!

With this being a school year with an all-school trip, there is no J-term for January of 2022. The Lord willing, J-term will resume in January of 2023 and the following years.

General:

Trinity Christian High Music Department will present its winter music program on Monday, Dec 13, beginning at 7:00 p.m.  The band, both choirs, and combined choirs will present Christmas and general music in praise to our Heavenly Savior.  O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!  There will be a collection for Trinity Christian.
