From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Holy Trinity High School is a Catholic secondary school founded in Chicago, Illinois, United States, by the Congregation of Holy Cross in 1910. It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago.

Established in 1910 by The Brothers of Holy Cross, Holy Trinity was originally a boy’s school serving the neighborhood sons of Polish immigrants. Today, Holy Trinity is co-educational and serves Hispanic, African American, White American, and Asian students. Holy Trinity is centrally located to the Chicago area and attracts students throughout the city and suburbs. Chicago neighborhoods with Holy Trinity students include the Wicker Park, River North and Bucktown communities.

The Holy Trinity student is selected for his or her determination to successfully complete the four-year curriculum and is expected to work to his or her fullest potential. Students must possess a strong academic ability to learn, demonstrate high moral character and respect for others. Students are required to take an entrance exam and submit their elementary school records for acceptance consideration.

As of May of 2006, all seniors have been accepted by the college of their choice. The average graduation percentage is 95%.
