Start Your Trinity Journey

Trinity, an elementary-only school serving children age three through Sixth Grade, uses an online application system called Ravenna to organize the entire admissions process. To get started, please create an account within Ravenna and follow the steps outlined below. 

The Trinity admissions process is child-centered. It is our goal to know every applicant and his or her family personally. We understand that selecting the best school for your family is of the utmost importance. We are dedicated to working closely with you to ensure a smooth and informative admissions process. Admissions requirements vary by grade and are designed to assess a child’s readiness for Trinity.

The admissions applications open on Oct 1, 2024, for the 2025-26 school year. If you have any questions about Ravenna or our application process, please contact Lauren Darden, Admissions and Enrollment Management Assistant, at 404-231-8118 or ldarden@trinityatl.org.

Trinity School is accredited by the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS), the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), and Cognia and is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), the Georgia Independent School Association (GISA), and the Atlanta Area Association of Independent Schools (AAAIS).

Let's Get Started

  • 1. Explore Trinity School in Ravenna


    Trinity School uses Ravenna Solutions for the entire admissions process. To begin your journey at Trinity, we invite you to
    create an account with Ravenna, which will include both a household profile and a student profile. If you already have an account in Ravenna—either for another child or from a previous admissions season—please edit your household and student profiles to ensure all information is correct and current.

    Once you have created a family account and a student profile in Ravenna, go to the School Directory to search Atlanta Area schools for Trinity School. Then click the green “Explore” button for all children you are interested in applying to Trinity. After exploring, you will be able to see all application requirements, steps, and deadlines.

  • 2. Attend an Open House

    Thank you so much for your interest in Trinity School! There is no better way to get a real feel for Trinity than to attend an Open House. Open House registration will open in Ravenna at 9 AM on Wednesday, August 21.

    Each Open House begins at 9:30 AM and includes an overview of our early childhood and elementary program as well as a Q&A with a panel composed of our administrative leaders and members of our Sixth Grade Leadership Class.

    After the Open House presentation, visitors will have the opportunity to go on a guided tour of the school's campus.

  • 3. Submit Application


    Admission applications open on October 1 and the deadline is January 17. In accordance with the Atlanta Area Association of Independent Schools Common Calendar, admissions decisions will be released on April 5, 2025.

    To submit an application, you will complete: (i) the Shared Applicant Information Form (used by many other Atlanta-area schools that use the Ravenna online system), (ii) Trinity School’s unique Parent/Guardian Statements, and (iii) the appropriate Authorization Form(s) before paying the $95 application fee and submitting the application. All applications must be submitted by the application deadline; however, we are able to better serve applicant families with scheduling observations and processing application requirements the earlier you submit the application.
