Spiritual Formation: The Trinity Episcopal School Identity Statement
The TES Episcopal Identity Statement
- As a learning community founded within a rich tradition of openness and acceptance, Trinity Episcopal School subscribes to an approach to religious education that encourages students to be reflective servants, thoughtful stewards and critical thinkers. While Trinity Episcopal School observes the cherished rites and traditions of the Episcopal Church, it embraces the religious diversity that exists within our community and “affirms our willingness to listen to and learn humbly from those whose perceptions of God’s mystery differ from our own."
- All that Trinity Episcopal School is and does is centered on life in the Spirit, which inspires its educational mission within the classroom and beyond.
- Having a deep-abiding concern for the well being of society, Trinity Episcopal School, as a whole school community, is compelled to engage in outreach and service to others.
- Trinity Episcopal School is grounded in a sound academic program that recognizes the School’s calling to cultivate the unique gifts of each child for the fulfillment of God’s purpose. As we encourage students to recognize their responsibility to apply intellectual and creative gifts towards a greater good, we nurture spirituality as an integral dimension of a child’s development, equipping them to go out into the world with a rich inner life.
- Trinity Episcopal School is committed to creating and sustaining a school community that mirrors the racial, religious and economic diversity of Greater Charlotte. In the fulfillment of that part of our mission, we are graced with a location that fosters inclusion and supports our partaking broadly of civic and cultural opportunities.
