Palmer Trinity School

" From even small efforts, there are so many benefits to being involved at your child's school: enhanced educational opportunities, getting to know your child's friends, teachers, and coaches, and feeling good about making a difference. One reward people don't always mention is that it can be fun! Supporting activities at Palmer Trinity School may be some work, but because there is such an amazing community of families, teachers and staff, it is always worthwhile AND a great time." — P A R E N T Other Ways to Support the Development Office Annual Fund Committee e Annual Fund allows our school to fulfill the academic plan budgeted for each school year. As with most independent schools, the tuition alone at Palmer Trinity School does not cover the cost of educating our children, and the Annual Fund provides the resources needed to meet our budget so that Palmer Trinity can continue to provide the highest level of academics, equip classrooms with technology and innovative educational aids, and hire and retain the best teachers. If you would like to help spread the word about the importance of the Annual Fund, you can become an Annual Fund Ambassador and join a group of dedicated parents who want to make a difference.
