About

About Trinity College School

Trinity College School is an independent day (Grades 5–12) and boarding (Grades 9–12) school in Port Hope, Ontario, where every aspect of the student experience is intentionally designed to prepare young people not only for university, but for life. Students are challenged to discover their strengths, pursue their interests, and become the very best version of themselves in a supportive community where they are known, encouraged, and inspired to grow. With more than 120 courses, including the AP Capstone Diploma program, students have the flexibility to explore their passions while pursuing academic excellence. Beyond the classroom, athletics, the arts, leadership opportunities, and meaningful service experiences help students develop resilience, empathy, creativity, and a sense of responsibility to others. As one of Canada’s leading boarding schools, TCS brings together students from across Canada and around the world, creating a vibrant community where learning continues long after the school day ends. Whether they are day or boarding students, young people benefit from strong relationships with teachers, coaches, advisors, and house staff who know them well, celebrate their successes, and support them through challenges. We believe that growth comes from embracing new experiences, taking healthy risks, and learning from setbacks in an environment where students feel safe, supported, and connected. The result is graduates who leave TCS with far more than academic achievement. They graduate as curious learners, compassionate leaders, confident communicators, and capable young adults with the character, resilience, and perspective to make a meaningful contribution wherever life takes them.
