Palmer Trinity School is an independent Episcopal college-preparatory day school for girls and boys in grades 6 to 12, set on a campus of almost 60 acres in Palmetto Bay, south of downtown Miami. It traces its roots to Palmer School, which opened on the site in 1972, and Trinity Episcopal School, founded in 1983; the two merged in 1991 to form today's coeducational school. Around 770 students attend, coming from some 40 countries, and more than half of them are bilingual, reflecting Miami's multicultural character. The programme is divided into a Middle School (grades 6-8) and an Upper School (grades 9-12). Upper School students can choose from a wide range of Honors and Advanced Placement courses, and the school is authorised to offer the IB Diploma Programme in grades 11 and 12. Average class size is about 15, and every student has an advisor who follows their academic and personal progress. The school is a member of Round Square and a founding member of the Institute for Global Learning, and it highlights global travel, service learning and environmental stewardship as part of everyday school life. It does not accept state or federal funding, including government scholarship programmes.
