About Trinity College School

Trinity College School is a co-educational, independent boarding/day school located on 100 acres of rolling countryside in picturesque Port Hope, Ontario, Canada, one hour's drive east of Toronto. Our Senior School, Grades 9-12, includes 450 students, approximately 60% of whom are boarders. Our Junior School includes nearly 100 day students from Grade 5 to Grade 8. Established in 1865, TCS is one of Canada's oldest and most respected educational institutions. The School places a balanced emphasis on academics, service learning, athletics and the arts, as both a long-held TCS tradition and a rethought, reinvigorated approach to 21st century education. Trinity College School's challenging academic program over four years of high school emphasizes a liberal arts philosophy. Students are engaged equally in the arts and sciences during their first two years of study. In Grade 11 and 12, students begin to specialize and many take <a href="http://www.tcs.on.ca/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=239&Itemid=588">Advanced Placement</a> courses. Class sizes at TCS are small, ranging from 12 to 20 students. This ensures that each student receives personal attention and the opportunity to develop positive relationships with their teachers. With academics at the forefront, TCS allows its students to excel in many areas of life. Students are encouraged to experiment as they travel the road of adolescence. The abundance of activities creates an exciting momentum at the TCS for all those involved. At the end of the day, however, it is the caring and genuine community that makes Trinity College School home to over 270 boarding students from around the world.
