GRADE 12 Online Electives

Seniors may enroll in one online elective class that is not offered at Trinity Hall via One Schoolhouse. One Schoolhouse provides an exceptional all-girls educational experience by connecting girls worldwide through relevant and engaging coursework in a dynamic online learning community. This program, which supplements the Trinity Hall World Language offerings, is a consortium effort of more than 100 of the best nationally and internationally known schools. One Schoolhouse is fully accredited with the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools through December 1, 2018, and is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), the National Business Officers Association (NBOA), the National Coalition of Girls’ School (NCGS), the Independent Curriculum Group (ICG), the Mastery Transcript Consortium, and the International Association for K-12 Online Learning (iNACOL). 

 

Integrated Wellness

The Integrated Wellness program at Trinity Hall provides students with a foundation for health and well-being through an online curriculum that focuses on mind, body and spirit. This program is a graduation requirement and typically is met in the ninth and tenth grades, with upper-class students being encouraged to continue their wellness goals and intentions after they finish the required course. Students complete assignments in this online course on a monthly schedule, giving them ample time to reflect on their learning and understanding of important health topics in accordance with the New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Comprehensive Health and Physical Education. In addition, the Integrated Wellness program is supported by periodic discussions held during Advisory meetings as well as “drop-in” fitness sessions such as yoga, Pilates and aerobics offered during open periods. Overall, students learn that physical, mental and spiritual health are the components of lifelong wellness and can be integrated into their daily lives.

 

 

Beyond the Hall

 

The primary objective of the “Beyond the Hall” senior experience is to allow each of our anticipated graduates the opportunity to independently explore an area of academic, professional, creative, or service interest. With help from a faculty facilitator, students will identify and seek approval for a worthwhile internship, task/challenge, or program that will adequately satisfy their requirement for this experience while also demonstrating their passion for discovery beyond the limits of our interdisciplinary curriculum.
