Holy Trinity Names New Upper School Dean of Students
Friday, July 16th, 2021
Holy Trinity Classical Christian School is pleased to announce the naming of the Rev. Joseph A. Lawrence as the new Upper School Dean of Students. Previously, Lawrence has served as a faculty member in the Humane Letters department as well as serving as Upper School Chaplain.
Dean Lawrence graduated summa cum laude from Franciscan University of Steubenville with a major in English Literature and a minor in Philosophy, and graduated from Trinity School for Ministry in Ambridge, PA with a Masters of Divinity.
Lawrence is excited about his new role at Holy Trinity and had this say, "Holy Trinity has been a place where charity and fidelity, truth and beauty, valor and virtue are not dusty words from a forgotten past but living realities lighting the way to a meaningful future. I am delighted to serve as the Dean of the Upper School in such a place."
Holy Trinity Classical Christian School was founded in 2012 and is an independent, non-parochial school which serves more than 400 students in the Beaufort community. Their inaugural graduating class of 19 students in 2020 were awarded over $3.5 million in scholarship offers, had 4 of Beaufort County’s 5 National Merit Scholarship Finalists, and 9 Palmetto Scholars. This year, Holy Trinity graduated 21 students with more than $3 million in scholarship offers. The school expects to eventually cap enrollment in Pre-K through 12th grades at 450-500. Holy Trinity has purposely set its tuition rates low in order to keep the school accessible to any family who desires a classical, Christian education for their child. Since 2012, Holy Trinity has awarded over $7.5 million in additional tuition discounts and need-based aid which is made possible through generous donors.
