Principal's Message
Greetings Trinity South Family!
Student participation in our “Produce” contest last month was Awesome! We had a variety of fresh homegrown produce, flowers, and canning entries! Just to give you a little background information on our produce contest; each spring Trinity South students are given a variety of seeds that they can grow at home over the summer break, at the beginning of each school year, the students who want to participate, harvest their produce and bring it to Trinity South. Members of the Trinity High School FFA judged the produce and select the winners of each category. The Produce contest was started at the Amity School and its founder was Chester E. Bailey, who was one of the first teachers at Amity school in 1952. The student produce was on display for Trinity South’s Open House nights. What a great Trinity Hiller Tradition! I was so proud of how many of our students participated in this year’s contestin grades 1-3! Special thanks to Mrs. Durila and the THS FFA students and former Trinity South Students who conducted the judging!
