Advanced STEAM Academics Program (ASAP)

Students may enter the program as 5th, 6th or 7th graders, and once enrolled, will continue ASAP coursework through the completion of 8th grade. Those who complete the ASAP program will receive the Junior Scholar Award at the end of the eighth grade.
 
Students who progress through this challenging curriculum are well poised to segue into the STEAM or Global Citizenship diploma tracks in grades 9-12. Gifted students applying for 8th grade admission to Holy Trinity can be considered for matriculation into Holy Trinity’s STEAM or Global Citizenship diploma tracks.
