HT Happenings Oct. 18, 2026

Dear Holy Trinity Families,

What a week at Holy Trinity! Between the excitement of the Cleveland Guardians’ postseason run, a beautiful 4th and 5th Grade Teaching Mass, and all the usual happenings around our school, there is certainly never a dull moment at HT!

A special thank you to Father Anthony for leading our 4th and 5th graders in a beautiful Teaching Mass this week. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to grow in their understanding of the Mass and deepen their faith. We are so grateful for the time and care Father Anthony shares with our school community!

While we were disappointed to have to reschedule Trunk or Treat and Haunted Halls, we are grateful for everyone's flexibility and understanding. Our 8th graders and their parents have put so much time, creativity, and hard work into preparing this event. We will be sharing an alternate date as soon as we have it scheduled! We cannot wait to see all their hard work come to life!

And speaking of celebrating, CONGRATULATIONS to our 8th Grade Volleyball team yesterday after winning in 2 games against St Raphael! We are looking forward to seeing them compete for the Championship tonight at 7 p.m. at St Josephs! We also want to wish our 8th and 7th grade football team as they work for a win this weekend leading to a championship game next weekend! The boys will be playing at 2:30 p.m. at Ignatius. Both teams are undefeated and we are looking forward to cheering them on!

Next Friday marks the end of our first quarter, and we are honestly not sure how that is possible already! The days are flying by, and we are so grateful for the energy, faith, and enthusiasm our students and staff bring to Holy Trinity each day.

As always, thank you for your continued support, flexibility, and teamwork. We are blessed to be part of such a wonderful school community and are grateful for the many ways you help make Holy Trinity such a special place to learn, grow, and live our faith.

Let's celebrate our Cleveland Guardians with a GUARDIAN Spirit Day tomorrow! Wear your best TRIBE gear!

Mr. Kaufhold and Ms. Flanagan

At Holy Trinity, our Specials program is structured a little differently for our intermediate and junior high students:

• Grades 4–5: Students rotate through five specials on a five-week cycle, spending a full week in each. In addition, they visit the library once a week for book checkout/renewals and to access our PBIS store.

• Grades 6–8: Junior high students rotate through their specials on a six-week cycle, also spending a full week focused on each class.

Our Scholastic Book Fair will be held from Monday, Nov. 2 to Friday, Nov. 6.

All proceeds from the Book Fair benefit the Holy Trinity School Library!

Organizers will not be asking for volunteer help this year. Thank you for your understanding.

Below are attachments will additional information, as well as teacher wish lists.
