A Message from the Headmaster

GARY WHITWELL

To Our TST Families and Friends:

Trinity School of Texas graduates are prepared to

take advantage of the opportunities that lie

before them. They have been nurtured and groomed to succeed in college

and beyond, and they are ready to pass through the doors that have been

opened for them by their experiences here. These experiences are made

possible by a unique combination of students, teachers, staff, parents,

grandparents, alumni, friends, Trinity Episcopal Church members, and all who

make up the TST community.

Trinity School of Texas is a premier college preparatory school. Dr. Seema

Rasheed, this year’s TST graduation speaker, spoke pointedly of how well

prepared she was for higher education when she left TST. Alumni speaking to

our Upper School students at Home for the Holidays events voice the same

thing. Time and time again our graduates speak of how they have been able

to meet all higher learning challenges set before them. There is more to their

readiness than just academic prowess. TST students develop the self-

confidence to try hard and flourish in unfamiliar situations. They have the

resilience to persevere and sustain their effort. They rely on the integrity

they have developed during their years at TST to make right decisions, and

they have the compassion and sense of responsibility to God, their families,

and their community to use their talents to help others.

The TST advantage is not an accident. It is the result of the generous and

ongoing contributions of our many patrons and supporters. This support

comes in the forms of time, talent, and financial gifts. Our many volunteers

work tirelessly to support our students and teachers and to help them take

their learning beyond the limits of the classroom. Gifts to the Trinity

Advantage Fund and Spring Gala, improvement projects led by the Parent

Teacher Council, and donations to meet specific needs help provide and

maintain the facilities and programs required for teaching and learning.

The prayers and support from Trinity Episcopal Church, and other churches

from which our families come, see to the spiritual well-being of our students

and staff. Our grounding in the Episcopal faith, guided by scripture, tradition,

and reason, provides our students a firm Christian foundation from which to

venture into the world. 2013-2014 was a good year for our students. With

your continued support, I am certain 2014-2015 will be even better.

Sincerely,

Gary Whitwell

Headmaster

Spirituality and Service

A distinguishing characteristic of Trinity School of Texas is that we seek to integrate religious and spiritual formation into the overall curriculum and life of the school community.

By weaving these principles into the very fabric of the school's overall life, Trinity School of Texas ensures that its mission is built upon the sure foundation of a Christian love that guides and challenges all who attend our school to build lives of genuine meaning, purpose, and service in the world they will inherit.

A special focus that TST provides is for students to participate in service projects that help others. 1 Peter 4:10 "As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace." These important lessons are taught in weekly chapel lessons and woven throughout daily life at TST.

Some of the community service activities our students participated in this year were various projects at local nursing homes working with the elderly as well as a canned food drive to help the hungry in our local community. Service hours were given for volunteerism at Windridge Equestrian Center, Good Shepherd Hospital, Asbury House, the Habitat for Humanity, “Free the Girls” Bra Drive, Alley Fest, New Gate Mission, the Alzheimer's Walk, March of Dimes, Relay for Life, Toys for Tots, Adopt-a-Family, Christmas Corner, Landmarks of Longview, and many other school and church events.

Fine Arts LOWER AND MIDDLE SCHOOL MUSIC | Wesley Spangler, Joel Wink, and Elizabeth Monsour represented TST as part of the TPSMEA Children's Lower School Honor Choir with a November performance in Plano. Amanda Gunn was accepted into the TPSMEA Middle School Honor Choir in Dallas (via audition).

UPPER SCHOOL ART | Students represented TST well at the TAPPS Art Competition. District results are 3rd Erin Spradlin (Senior Portfolio), 4th Lowery Houston (Senior Portfolio), Honorable Mention Roxanna Safarimaryaki (Senior Portfolio), 3rd Hope Jorda (Painting), 5th Alexa Hewitt (Painting), 6th Caroline Burlingame (Painting and Drawing-B&W). State Awards include 2nd place in Painting by Alexa Hewitt and two Honorable Mentions in the Senior Portfolio category by Erin Spradlin and Lowery Houston.

PHOTOGRAPHY | The TST photography department came home with several district and state awards as well. District Awards: Photography, Creative and Experimental – 2nd Victoria Garland, Photography, Black & White – 2nd Brett Oliver, Photography, Color – 1st Jamee Haynes, 5th Dar Sin, and 6th Natalia Gasic. Victoria Garland garnered 5th in Photography, Creative and Experimental at the State level.

“Constant prayers and well wishes from Trinity Episcopal Church and the many other churches and faiths represented among our families and friends nurture and support the spiritual development of our students, an aspect of their education that sets us apart from so many other schools.”

Patsy B. Hollandsworth Commons Dedication

Trinity School of Texas dedicated the Commons building to the Patsy B. Hollandsworth Family Foundation for their contributions over the years. Patsy and her husband Earl were both strong believers in the importance of education and preparing students for college and beyond. Earl, a driven young boy who dropped out of school in the 8th grade to go make a living, realized that despite his success after years of hard work, if he would have had a solid education, things would have been much easier in life for him and his family. Later in life, Earl along with his wife Patsy decided that they wanted to provide others with an opportunity that they never had themselves. Through supporting schools of excellence like Trinity School of Texas, that is exactly what they have done!

Patsy B. Hollandsworth and the Hollandsworth Family Foundation have donated over $300,000 in the past 7 years alone to Trinity School of Texas. The Foundation is the largest annual donor to Trinity’s Advantage Fund, donating approximately $25,000 to $30,000 each year remaining true to their commitment to providing children with a strong education from the beginning. In addition to the school’s Advantage Fund, the foundation has also donated funds for student scholarships and teacher benefits, as well as new technology, desks for children and cooking equipment for the cafeteria.

The dedication was held on April 25th in the Trinity School of Texas Courtyard. The event included the unveiling of the new sign and a press conference with the Head of School and the Hollandsworth family speaking.

However, it is understood that this total return basis for calculating spending is sanctioned by the Uniform Management of Institutional Funds Act (UMIFA) under which guidelines the School is permitted to spend an amount in excess of the current yield (interest and dividends earned), including realized or unrealized appreciation. The last five year spending pol % has been: 2005: 2%; 2006: 2.6%; 2007: 4.5%; 2008: 4.5%; 2009: 0%; 2010: 4.5% 2011: 5.0% 2012: 4.5% 2013: 4.5%

Opportunities to Give

T S T A D V A N T A G E F U N D The Trinity School of Texas Advantage Fund serves to build and sustain the Trinity Advantage: faith based mission, character development, excellent academics, faculty and staff professional development, smaller class size, safe and nurturing environment, strong athletics, vibrant visual and performing arts, among other aspirations. The Trinity School of Texas Advantage Fund goes above and beyond the opportunities offered by the operational budget to offer our children a continually enhanced educational experience. We encourage 100% of Board, Parents, Faculty & Staff, & Alumni to give to this vital fund annually. This fund is a TOP priority and every gift matters!

M A J O R G I F T S The future of TST depends on generous support by friends, family, and alumni. Facility upgrades, expanded curricular offerings, and other special projects are not possible without the support of significant donations. Major gifts allow the school to promote excellence and to attract and retain the most capable and brightest students and faculty.

C A P I T A L C A M P A I G N S Capital Campaigns are conducted to provide significant funds for growth such as endowment, construction/renovation, or extensive equipment purchases. Contributions are generally pledged over three to five years.

G I F T S T O E N D O W M E N T Trinity’s endowment is a collection of various restricted and unrestricted endowment and scholarship funds. While endowments are established through sizable initial gifts, they may also grow through smaller ongoing gifts. Endowment is an independent school’s savings account and provides a reliable source of income in perpetuity.

D E F E R R E D G I V I N G TST greatly encourages and appreciates future gifts made through one’s estate. You may consider giving through deferred gifts such as life insurance, bequests, or charitable trusts. Such gifts can offer tax benefits during the donor’s lifetime and/or reduce estate and inheritance taxes. In addition, individuals who provide for Trinity School of Texas in their estate plans will be recognized as members of the Trinity School of Texas Legacy Society. If you are interested in learning more about gift planning, we are happy to help you determine how and when to make a gift and with what assets.

H O N O R / M E M O R I A L Gifts made in honor or in memory of a loved one are designated for endowment unless otherwise specified. This is a wonderful way to remember a loved one or celebrate a special occasion in someone’s life such as Mother’s Day, B-day, Anniversary, Wedding, or Teacher Appreciation and benefit the school at the same time.

S T O C K S O R S E C U R I T I E S A gift of appreciated stock can offer a two-fold benefit: you may avoid a tax on the capital gain, in addition to qualifying for an income tax deduction for the full market value of the stock at the time of the gift.

S C H O L A R S H I P F U N D S Scholarships help Trinity School of Texas’ commitment to meet the full financial need of all students and ensure a diverse student body. Gifts may be given to provide assistance for current students within the operating budget or to provide future scholarship monies in the scholarship fund. Named endowed scholarships also are a meaningful way to leave a legacy, remember a loved one, or honor a favorite teacher.

M A T C H I N G G I F T S Many companies will match or multiply gifts made by employees and retirees to support education at the primary level. This is a simple way to double and sometimes even triple your gift to Trinity School of Texas. Contact your employer or human resource office to see if they will match all or part of your contribution and let us know that a matching gift is coming.

G I F T S I N K I N D Items and services may be donated to the school, which provide operational savings and meet the needs of the school. The donor, through appraisal or record of purchase, determines the value of the gift.

Your gifts will continue the tradition of generosity. It will enable our legacy of excellence to continue for current and future students of TST.
