They have been nurtured and groomed to succeed in college and beyond, and they are ready to pass through the doors that have been opened for them by their experiences here. These experiences are made possible by a unique combination of students, teachers, staff, parents, grandparents, alumni, friends, Trinity Episcopal Church members, and all who make up the TST community. Trinity School of Texas is a premier college preparatory school. Dr. Seema Rasheed, this year’s TST graduation speaker, spoke pointedly of how well prepared she was for higher education when she left TST. Alumni speaking to our Upper School students at Home for the Holidays events voice the same thing. Time and time again our graduates speak of how they have been able to meet all higher learning challenges set before them. There is more to their readiness than just academic prowess. TST students develop the selfconfidence to try hard and flourish in unfamiliar situations. They have the resilience to persevere and sustain their effort. They rely on the integrity they have developed during their years at TST to make right decisions, and they have the compassion and sense of responsibility to God, their families, and their community to use their talents to help others. The TST advantage is not an accident. It is the result of the generous and ongoing contributions of our many patrons and supporters. This support comes in the forms of time, talent, and financial gifts. Our many volunteers work tirelessly to support our students and teachers and to help them take their learning beyond the limits of the classroom. Gifts to the Trinity Advantage Fund and Spring Gala, improvement projects led by the Parent Teacher Council, and donations to meet specific needs help provide and maintain the facilities and programs required for teaching and learning. The prayers and support from Trinity Episcopal Church, and other churches from which our families come, see to the spiritual well-being of our students and staff. Our grounding in the Episcopal faith, guided by scripture, tradition, and reason, provides our students a firm Christian foundation from which to venture into the world. 2013-2014 was a good year for our students. With “Trinity School of Texas graduates are prepared to take advantage of the opportunities that lie before them. They have been nurtured and groomed to succeed in college and beyond, and they are ready to pass through the doors that have been opened for them by their experiences here.” GARY WHITWELL Headmaster your continued support, I am certain 2014-2015 will be even better.

A special focus that TST provides is for students to participate in service projects that help others. 1 Peter 4:10 "As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace."

THANK YOU! Rebecca and David Houston WWW.TRINITYSCHOOLOFTEXAS.COM Patsy B. Hollandsworth Commons Dedication Trinity School of Texas dedicated the Commons building to the Patsy B. Hollandsworth Family Foundation for their contributions over the years. Patsy and her husband Earl were both strong believers in the importance of education and preparing students for college and beyond. Earl, a driven young boy who dropped out of school in the 8th grade to go make a living, realized that despite his success after years of hard work, if he would have had a solid education, things would have been much easier in life for him and his family. Later in life, Earl along with his wife Patsy decided that they wanted to provide others with an opportunity that they never had themselves. Through supporting schools of excellence like Trinity School of Texas, that is exactly what they have done! Patsy B. Hollandsworth and the Hollandsworth Family Foundation have donated over $300,000 in the past 7 years alone to Trinity School of Texas. The Foundation is the largest annual donor to Trinity’s Advantage Fund, donating approximately $25,000 to $30,000 each year remaining true to their commitment to providing children with a strong education from the beginning. In addition to the school’s Advantage Fund, the foundation has also donated funds for student scholarships and teacher benefits, as well as new technology, desks for children and cooking equipment for the cafeteria. The dedication was held on April 25th in the Trinity School of Texas Courtyard. The event included the unveiling of the new sign and a press conference with the Head of School and the Hollandsworth family speaking.

The Trinity School of Texas Advantage Fund goes above and beyond the opportunities offered by the operational budget to offer our children a continually enhanced educational experience. We encourage 100% of Board, Parents, Faculty & Staff, & Alumni to give to this vital fund annually. This fund is a TOP priority and every gift matters! Gifts made in honor or in memory of a loved one are designated for endowment unless otherwise specified. This is a wonderful way to remember a loved one or celebrate a special occasion in someone’s life such as Mother’s Day, B-day, Anniversary, Wedding, or Teacher Appreciation and benefit the school at the same time. MAJOR GIFTS Scholarships help Trinity School of Texas’ commitment to meet the full financial need of all students and ensure a diverse student body. Gifts may be given to provide assistance for current students within the operating budget or to provide future scholarship monies in the scholarship fund. Named endowed scholarships also are a meaningful way to leave a legacy, remember a loved one, or honor a favorite teacher. The future of TST depends on generous support by friends, family, and alumni. Facility upgrades, expanded curricular offerings, and other special projects are not possible without the support of significant donations. Major gifts allow the school to promote excellence and to attract and retain the most capable and brightest students and faculty. CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS STOCKS OR SECURITIES A gift of appreciated stock can offer a two-fold benefit: you may avoid a tax on the capital gain, in addition to qualifying for an income tax deduction for the full market value of the stock at the time of the gift. SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS MATCHING GIFTS GIFTS TO ENDOWMENT Many companies will match or multiply gifts made by employees and retirees to support education at the primary level. This is a simple way to double and sometimes even triple your gift to Trinity School of Texas. Contact your employer or human resource office to see if they will match all or part of your contribution and let us know that a matching gift is coming. Trinity’s endowment is a collection of various restricted and unrestricted endowment and scholarship funds. While endowments are established through sizable initial gifts, they may also grow through smaller ongoing gifts. Endowment is an independent school’s savings account and provides a reliable source of income in perpetuity. Items and services may be donated to the school, which provide operational savings and meet the needs of the school. The donor, through appraisal or record of purchase, determines the value of the gift. Capital Campaigns are conducted to provide significant funds for growth such as endowment, construction/renovation, or extensive equipment purchases. Contributions are generally pledged over three to five years. GIFTS IN KIND DEFERRED GIVING TST greatly encourages and appreciates future gifts made through one’s estate. You may consider giving through deferred gifts such as life insurance, bequests, or charitable trusts. Such gifts can offer tax benefits during the donor’s lifetime and/or reduce estate and inheritance taxes. In addition, individuals who provide for Trinity School of Texas in their estate plans will be recognized as members of the Trinity School of Texas Legacy Society. If you are interested in learning more about gift planning, we are happy to help you determine how and when to make a gift and with what assets. WWW.TRINITYSCHOOLOFTEXAS.COM Your gifts will continue the tradition of generosity. It will enable our legacy of excellence to continue for current and future students of TST.
