The curriculum at Holy Trinity Episcopal School (HTES) reflects the courses of study in the typical middle schools and high schools in the area. However, HTES strives to assist each student as an individual learner at the middle school/high school level. The core programs offered in grades 6-8 help to establish and improve upon a base skill set that will be needed as the students prepare to enter high school. The middle school programs focus on establishing executive functioning skills and study skills, while at the same time building upon math, spelling, and vocabulary. During this time, middle school students learn important life competencies such as team building, stewardship, and personal responsibility.
At the high school level HTES offers curricula aligned to local standards in English, Math, Science, and Social Studies. There are also elective courses that offer students a chance to expand their global awareness such as Financial Literacy, Entrepreneurship, and Senior Project. Students are enrolled in a two-year foreign language program which is needed for graduation.
