| Environmental Club |
| Moderator: Susan Dimonski |
The environmental club’s purpose is to actively embrace the Catholic social issue of being stewards of the earth. The students in this club noticed many ways in which Trinity could be more involved with this issue. The club’s main focus this year is paper recycling. Future projects include plastics recycling, campus cleanup and involvement in the state of Ohio's Green Rivers Project. |

| Mock Trial |
| Moderators: Nadine Pekarek, Gina Ramirez |
Mock Trial is an academic competition sponsored in the state by the Ohio Council for Law Related Education. Students participate by putting together a case playing the lawyers and witnesses on both sides of the case. Our teams then compete in a District Competition against other schools who have prepared the same case. Advancement to Regional and State Competition require a team to win both sides of their trial. Mock Trial provides an academic avenue for student talents in speech, debate, drama, all while learning about Constitutional issues and how our legal system operates in a court. Students benefit from Mock Trial in becoming more confident and poised in speaking and critical thinking skills. |
