}} Trinity High School is a public high school located on a hilltop overlooking the city of Washington, Pennsylvania, in the United States. Its bell tower has been a landmark in Washington County for years. It is designated as a historic public landmark by the Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation. ==History== The school was once an all-boys military academy frequented by former president Ulysses S. Grant.〔Crompton, Janice. ("SUPERINTENDENT PUSHES FOR TRINITY HALL RESTORATION" ), ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette'', November 29, 1998. Accessed July 31, 2007. "The elder Smith gave the current school its primary claim to fame by keeping letters from his friend, Ulysses S. Grant, who periodically visited the school and stayed with Smith."〕 Today, Trinity is a modern public school housing approximately 1,279 students in grades 9–12 on a campus style setting.〔(Data for Trinity High School ), National Center for Education Statistics. Accessed July 31, 2007.〕 Trinity Hall, the historic core of the campus, dates back to 1857, when it was built as a private home. The building was purchased in 1879, and turned into the Trinity Hall Military Academy, with dormitories added for 35 students. The building was sold in 1925 to establish a public high school. The building has been expanded and renamed, but the core of the 150-year-old original structure remains.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trinity High School (Washington, Pennsylvania)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
