Trinity Area School District is approved for Flexible Instruction Days (FIDs), which may be used in place of a school day that would be canceled because of inclement weather or another emergency situation. On a FID, students will remain at home to complete remote instruction/learning activities and assignments provided by their teachers, via their Chromebook.  

What's the benefit of a FID?

Implementing a FID will not require additional make-up days when school is canceled. These make-up days could shorten the spring break or extend the school year; however, since FIDs are considered a school day, the school calendar can remain the same.The school district has been approved for five FIDs for the school year. 

If the District calls for a FID, how will I know?

Parents, guardians and students will be informed of a closure/FID via ParentSquare, email, phone and text messaging system. The announcement will be posted on the TASD website, www.trinitypride.org, and the local media (television and radio) will announce the closure/FID. The District's notification systems will function in the same way that school closings and delays are currently announced, and the day will be identified as a FID. 

What are the expectations for FIDs?

Students who attend Trinity Intermediate School, Trinity Middle School, and Trinity High School will be expected to log into Canvas every day for every scheduled class. Detailed information about expectations is noted below. Please review these expectations with your child, and contact your child’s building principal with any questions.
