Climate & Culture

Thank you!!!

I would like to say "thank you" to all of our wonderful and supportive parents. I know sometimes that it is frustrating when you get a call from school regarding your child's behavior. Please know and understand that Trix Academy appreciates the support you give us. The pop up visits, the check in phone call and just random conversations about how your child has been doing. Our biggest goal at Trix is to help the studen's win. It takes us working together as a team to reach that common goal. When the students see that the parents are against the school, then it causes a divide. Let's continue working together as a team to help our students be successful. Again, thank you parents for your continued support, we appreciate it!

Tutoring starts tomorrow for those scholars who received permission slips. Tutoring starts promptly at 4:00 and ends at 5:15pm. Please be on time for pickup!

Tutoring is Every Monday and Wednesday.

Only Scholars who are TAKING PICTURE may dress down for Spring Picture Day!

We will start calling for scholars at 3:20. Walkers will also called down at 3:25.
