Trinity High School is a Catholic, all-boys, college preparatory high school located in St. Matthews, Kentucky, a city within Louisville Metro (consolidated city/county government). It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Louisville. The school incorporates the Catholic tradition of teaching and learning. The school campus comprises about 1,400 students. In 1992, Trinity was named a Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, In 1995, Trinity was accredited by the non-profit Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (now known as AdvancED).
Trinity first opened its doors in 1953, when Archbishop John Floersh anticipated the growth of Louisville's eastern suburbs by choosing the site of Holy Trinity School, a former Roman Catholic church and grade school in St. Matthews. The school is named after the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, which holds that God is three consubstantial persons The school was founded with the intent to eventually become self-sufficient over time.
The campus of Trinity High School was originally constructed in the early 20th century for the now defunct Holy Trinity School. It originally contained two buildings which would later be named Floersh Hall and Old Trinity Hall. In 1953, when the school opened, Shamrock Hall and the Trinity Football Field were added to the campus, as well as a rectory for the resident priest. In 1968, the Trinity Campus was expanded to include Sheehan Hall, which is connected to the main building. This expansion greatly increased the student capacity by several hundred.
In 1999, construction of the R.W. Marshall Sports Center was completed and serves as the hub for Trinity Athletics. In 2001, Alumni Hall was added to the main building, which serves as the school's cafeteria and administrative hub, as well as hosting the Trinity Campus Store. The Trinity Campus expanded again in 2004 to include the third expansion to the main building, Duerr Hall. Other buildings which are found on the Trinity Campus include the Steinhauser Gymnasium, Communication Arts Center and Trinity Theatre.
