Philosophy
The goal of the Guidance Department is to nurture Blessed Trinity students' academic and emotional development.
Our department places a great emphasis on creating an atmosphere in which every student is encouraged to succeed and an environment where all people are treated with respect. We strive to help each student recognize his/her special talents and gifts. The department encourages the development of an independent, responsible, and moral student who can enhance the Blessed Trinity community and be an outstanding citizen of the world.

TCCi Family Connection from Naviance enables our guidance office to offer a comprehensive website that students and parents can use to help in making decisions about colleges and careers. We will use this program to track and analyze data about each student's college plans. It provides up-to-date college information that is specific to our school as well as being the manner with which students will log service hours.
We have provided sophomores through seniors with a personal access code and instructions for accessing Naviance. Freshmen will be trained and provided an access code at the beginning of the school year. We hope that you will find this resource helpful. If you have further questions about TCCi Family Connection, please contact us.
