History
In 2002, Boston Trinity Academy was founded by a group of Boston-area business people and residents led by Robert Bradley, the president of a Boston investment firm. In pursuit of creating a college preparatory school rooted in the principles of the Christian faith, Boston Trinity opened its door with 54 students in grades 6-9 by in a rented school building on Beacon Street in Brookline, between Kenmore Square and Coolidge Corner. Adding a grade each year, the school soon expanded to 125 students, and 16 students of the first senior class graduated in June 2006.
In September 2006, Boston Trinity purchased a property, where nuns operated a Catholic elementary school until 2005, from Bernardine Franciscan Sisters, and acquired their first official building with a five-acre campus in the Hyde Park neighborhood. Since 2006, Boston Trinity has expanded its student body to 230 students in grades 6 through 12.
