[edit] History
The school opened on September 9, 1970, as part of a merger of three Catholic high schools in Manchester: Bishop Bradley High School, Immaculata High School, and Saint Anthony's High School. The only remaining Catholic high school in the city, Ste. Marie's, remained independent but eventually closed in 1973.
The school's college preparatory curriculum features a Catholic emphasis. Students of all faiths are welcome to attend, but classes on the Catholic faith are required of all students.
It is accredited by the National Catholic Educational Association.
[edit] Sports and extracurricular clubs
The school competes at the Class "L" level in 21 boys', girls' and coed varsity sports. The football team currently competes in Division IV. The teams are known by the mascot name "Pioneers."
The school fields a FIRST Robotics Team, which competed on the national level in 2011.[3]
On March 21, after two consecutive championship losses, the Trinity Pioneers won the 2009 Class "L" basketball championship at UNH's Lundholm Gym.[4]
