Trinity International University-Florida are regional sites of Trinity International University, Deerfield, Illinois. The Miami-Dade location was established in 1993 following a close relationship with Miami Christian College. The Florida sites offer undergraduate and graduate degree programs represented by three schools of the university – Trinity College, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, and Trinity Graduate School. Trinity has a rich legacy that reaches back to the end of the 19th century beginning as a Bible Institute. It is the result of the merger of two Scandinavian immigrant church groups, who began schools to train their ministers and missionaries. The two groups were the Norwegian-Danish Free Church Association and the Swedish Evangelical Free Church of America. Since 1897, Trinity has flourished through many transitions. The latest transition occurred in January 1995 when Trinity College and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois and Trinity College in Miami, Florida united to become Trinity International University. The entire university is international and committed to serving the global church. Trinity offers students an international vision in a world that is increasingly independent and enrolls students from over forty countries on all our campuses. Trinity’s special mission is to do that which the great Western universities have ceased to do — provide excellence in academics as well as preparation for ministry and professions — all within the context of a Christian worldview and a Christian community. At Trinity International University-Florida we are committed to the same vision with which we were founded in 1897 and determined to follow in the footsteps of the great universities that were founded on the cornerstone belief that all wisdom lies in Jesus Christ. Our task, if we are to be salt in the world of our day, is to build institutions where we can think like Christians and learn to live as Christians in a culture in which both have become equally hard. Whether preparing to be pastors or missionaries or attorneys, teachers, counselors, scientists, corporate leaders, homemakers or public servants, whatever our calling under God, we need excellence in education, grounded in the lordship of Jesus Christ. That is the goal and task of Trinity International University. Trinity educates men and women to engage in God’s redemptive work in the world by cultivating academic excellence, Christian faithfulness, and lifelong learning. At the heart of Trinity’s mission lies its commitment to engage the culture for Jesus Christ. Trinity’s purpose is to enable its graduates—in all schools and in every discipline—to think and live like Christians in the twenty-first century. We believe that God calls his people into many kinds of the services Trinity’s calling is to prepare them to serve for his glory.

Right from our vision statement: "Immaculata: A Family that Fosters Excellence," we identify our students, staff, and families as all part of an extended family. Teachers know all of the students by their first names, figure out who their siblings are, and get to know their parents. Students know that the staff is available to them for academic, spiritual, and emotional support. We have had former students choose to return to Immaculata as teachers to continue their school journey. We have had generations of families choose to attend Immaculata so that children of former students can enjoy the same experience that they enjoyed. In 1938, the Sisters of Charity began formal instruction. By September 1950, St. Joseph Elementary School officially opened for the instruction of grades K-7 inclusive. With the completion of Immaculata High School in 1960, a complete Catholic education from Kindergarten to Grade 12 was realized. The Sisters of Charity of Halifax ably assisted the first principal. In 1979, the Basilian Fathers first became involved in our schools. Immaculata was officially under the direction of the Basilian Fathers until 1992. Plans for a new facility were begun in earnest. In September 1995, through the perseverance of Bishop Peter Mallon, a new Immaculata Regional High School was opened. The new facility can house 300 students, with plans to expand to 600 students when needed. Immaculata Regional High School is a Catholic High School, established by the Catholic Public School Society of Nelson Diocese under the Kelowna Catholic Public School Council's direction. Immaculata presents itself in service to the students and families in our Catholic community. We are a community of teachers, support staff, clergy, parents, and students engaged in the common task of empowering each student to learn how to do all that he/she is capable of doing. This development of healthy, capable young people with clear perceptions of their capabilities and high self-esteem should not be left to chance. The school's role in our ever-changing society is to give students good judgment and decision-making skills to cope with many new challenges. Students must leave school with a well-developed spiritual life, a high degree of self-awareness, empathy for social justice and third world ministry, and the ability to help their friends in a time of crisis. The ultimate goal of Immaculata Regional High School is to develop in its graduates a value orientation that puts a high priority on the formation of leaders in service to others. Specific objectives to develop such a graduate may best be summarized in five main categories. Openness To GrowthMaturity as a person: emotionally, intellectually, physically, socially, and spiritually - to a level that reflects some intentional, conscious responsibility for one's growth. Demonstration of mastery of those academic requirements for the advanced focus of an education. The acquisition of the necessary knowledge and understanding of the central doctrines and practices of the Catholic faith - to have examined one's feelings and beliefs intending to choose a fundamental orientation toward God and to establish a relationship with a religious tradition and community. Being in the last of their formative periods, our graduates should be well on the way to establishing their own identity. They should be on the threshold of moving beyond self-interest to loving, caring for, and sharing with others. At the end of this educational experience, our graduates should have achieved considerable knowledge of local and world communities' needs. They should be prepared to take their places in the world community as competent, concerned, and responsible members. Immaculata Regional High School works to be identified as a safe place where student learning occurs amid caring and sharing people. Grade 8 to 10 students participate in weekly workshops with various speakers from the community or staff members. Students begin to look at and plan for their future education and career ambitions. Furthermore, we discuss a wide variety of health issues, including drug abuse, nutrition, exercise, stress management, and healthy relationships. As part of this course, students are also required to complete thirty hours of community service. Given that community service includes serving school, church, or community, many organizations have benefited from our students' assistance. Graduation Transitions 12 is required for graduation in British Columbia. It is an opportunity for students to reflect on their knowledge and abilities and prepare for a successful transition to life after secondary school. Students will form a plan for life after graduation by collecting evidence of their achievements in the following required areas: Personal Health, Community Connections, and Career & Life.

Those words suggest a belief in something beyond our capabilities and understanding. They suggest that we must possess the necessary component required to sustain such conviction, especially during difficult times. That component, of course, is faith. It often sees us through the storms of daily life and is the one constant in our lives that we can truly count on. Faith does not know what the future holds but knowing who holds the future. At Notre Dame, we work hard every day at instilling that belief and confidence in ourselves, and, most significantly, within our students. It is the spiritual bond that connects our entire community and is intended to bring us closer together. There will be times in our lives where we feel alone or even abandoned times when our faith is put to the test. When we are going through something difficult and wonder where God is, we must remember that the teacher is always quiet during a test. Quiet yet always present, aware, and ready to assist if and when needed. This school year, as we face all of life'slife's challenges and strive toward their solution, let us be mindful that we are human and imperfect and mindful that all things are possible with God'sGod's help. Mindful that….we can do all things through Him. In the early 1950s, Archbishop Duke invited religious orders from across North America to come to Vancouver to found a high school to educate the children of ten Catholic parishes in east Vancouver and Burnaby (Corpus Christi, Holy Cross, Immaculate Heart of Mary, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Helen'sHelen's, St. Jude'sJude's, St. Mary'sMary's, St. Theresa'sTheresa's, Our Lady of Sorrows, Sacred Heart). Halifax'sHalifax's Sisters of Charity accepted his challenge, and in 1953 Notre Dame opened its doors for the first time. Notre Dame Regional Secondary is co-educational, offering academic, fine arts, business programs, athletic, performing arts, and other extra-curricular programs for students from grades 8 to 12.

To ensure that individual needs are met, Student Services collaborates with parents, teachers, and students to create an Individual Education Plan.
