- As a primary school, our core purpose is to ensure all our pupils attain the highest standards in all aspects of literacy and maths leaving this school with both high levels of attainment and having progressed well from their starting point. We believe that we will be more successful if this core goal is enshrined in a clear and shared approach to teaching and learning and school ethos. Our core aims as a school are: To inspire in all pupils a love of learning and the desire to continue to learn. To equip all pupils with the tools and self-confidence necessary to constructively influence their own lives. To ensure that all pupils have an equal opportunity to take part in the life and work of the school. To be a place every child remembers with affection. As a school we work from some core principles of teaching and learning which shape how we then plan and teach: We place a high value on creativity in all aspects of school life and work We strive to make learning vivid and real We see questions - and mistakes - as central to learning and we encourage ‘growth mindsets’ We work to ensure all learners succeed and that every child is confident, happy, and secure We aim high and value excellence We take every opportunity to recognize and celebrate success Special events and traditions play an important role in school life We have at our core a commitment to equality of opportunity Everyone at this school works hard and enjoys themselves! Eleanor Palmer School is committed to valuing all members of the school community and strives to ensure that the opportunities to succeed are equal for all. Our school makes all members of our community feel welcome and valued. Our vision and values promote inclusion and equality and tackle discrimination. We have high expectations for all our pupils irrespective of race, creed, gender, or disability. Our equalities statement is guided by some core principles: All learners are of equal value We recognize and respect difference We foster positive attitudes and relationships and a shared sense of community and belonging We observe good practice in recruitment, retention, and staff development We aim to reduce and challenge barriers to equality that already exist.

- Palmer Trinity School is located on almost 60 acres of tranquil, beautiful open space in Palmetto Bay, an area south of downtown Miami. The campus forms part of an environment that promotes the whole person's enrichment, as reflected in our motto, "Virtus, Humanitas, et Spiritus." Recognizing the importance of balancing mind, body, and spirit, we aim to foster growth through academic, spiritual, and personal development. Palmer Trinity students are encouraged not only to attain individual success but to use their unique gifts for others' service. Through an extensive academic program and stimulating extracurricular activities, students are nurtured to develop character, global awareness, and critical thinking. In addition to providing a strong emphasis on academics, athletics, and spiritual formation, Trinity also helped students bond with each other and with faculty members through the many clubs on campus and trips off-campus. The Yearbook (Footprints), Newspaper (Trinity Times), Drama Club, Eat ‘n Wear (the culinary club), Model Club (as in airplane models), Ceramics Club, Modern Dance, Service Club, Student Government, Band, National Honor Society, and other honor societies all helped to enhance skills in those areas and to build lasting friendships. Trips to far-away places like Williamsburg, Washington, DC, and Canada (which combined skiing and practice in speaking French) became highlights of education, fun, and community building. Ventures closer to home, like camping trips to the Peace River and the Keys, left memories of paddling canoes in the Florida wilderness with close friends. With a grade added each year, Trinity students developed a deep love for their campus, but cleverly, they were excited in 1991 about the merger. In the last Trinity yearbook, the final two pages show a Trinity campus scene with the word "Good," and then a scene of what would now become the Palmer Trinity campus, with the words, "Very Good." Palmer Trinity is an Episcopal school dedicated to promoting academic excellence and inspiring students to lead lives of virtue, humanity, and spirit. By providing a supportive, inclusive environment for students, we emphasize academic distinction, ethical global citizenship, and character. As members of the greater community, we educate students to lead lives of honor and social responsibility. Palmer Trinity School is committed to diversity and includes students with various academic interests and students from diverse ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds. Our school community reflects the pride of shared purpose and love of learning in a values-based environment, where each child is respected for his or her uniqueness. We respect the sacred and honor each individual as created in the image of God. We cultivate curiosity, creativity, innovation, and scholarship as the foundations of intellectual growth. We maintain excellence in academics, athletics, and the arts. We encourage vision, initiative, and leadership in serving each other, the greater community, and the world. We promote collegial relationships between students, faculty, staff, and parents. We recognize the importance of leading lives of conscience and integrity. We practice compassion, understanding, and respecting the dignity of each human being. We embrace differences among individuals while celebrating our shared humanity. We honor the unity of mind, body, and spirit. Palmer Trinity has a diverse population and is friendly and welcoming. We provide students with a stimulating and extensive academic program, a wide range of extracurricular activities, and weekly Chapel services, embracing the Episcopal tradition of nurturing individual talents, not only for personal gain but also in service to others. To foster this development, we have many community service opportunities to participate in and a nationally recognized global citizenship program. We believe our success can be seen in students who have a foundation laid with core values that will serve them well in life and global awareness of the world they will engage in. Character development, responsible decision-making, and the appropriate balance of mind, body, and spirit are what we strive to encourage, develop, and maintain. Our talented faculty and staff serve as role models, advisors, and mentors, impacting our students' lives, in and out of the classroom and beyond graduation.
