Gym Strip Requirements
Ordering Gym Strip for the new school year
Like last year, we will once again be using our Online School Store for families and students to not only order TCS gear, but more specifically their TCS gym strip. Currently, there is only gym strip available in the store, but more TCS athletics and school gear will be available soon. Students in gr. 6-9 will need a blue Trinity Athletics t-shirt and a pair of black Trinity Athletics shorts. There are many options available including youth and ladies sizes and styles. There are also Lululemon shorts options if parents wish.
The school store will be open from now until August 4 and again at the beginning of September. If parents purchase gym strip in July, there will be no shipping costs and students will receive their gym strip right away in September. If parents purchase in September, there will be a shipping cost as those orders will be shipped directly to your house. In order to ensure your child meets our gym strip expectations throughout the school year, we suggest you purchase 2 sets of gym strips (in case one goes missing) or even 2 shirts and 1 pair of shorts. To ensure proper sizing please look at the sizing charts in the online store. We also strongly encourage our jr high students to use and lock their gym lockers to ensure their gym strip does not "walk away". Grade 6 students will not receive a gym locker. Instead they will keep their clothes in a bag and keep their bag on the stage in the gym. There is a bag you can purchase in the store as well for your convenience. All gym strip gear and bags (except Lululemon gear) will have a white bar for parents to clearly label their child's gym strip.

Why do we have a school mandated gym strip?
For a number of reasons;
(1) This way we can ensure all students have access to good and safe gym gear that does not restrict movement,
(2) To reinforce the importance of changing for PE, to promote healthy hygiene,
(3) To get into the mental head space to engage in physical activity,
(4) This gym strip has been approved by our school admin and meets our school’s dress code,
(5) Having a unified gym strip communicates to students the teamwork and collaboration that we expect under the Trinity banner because WE ARE ALL EAGLES!

Do students need to wear TCS gym strip every day?
Yes! Of course, we encourage students to wash their strip regularly, but this should be done on weekends so that they can ensure they have it for the following Monday. There are consequences for students who do not wear a TCS gym strip. Many students will have their gym strip from last year so they can wear those again this year.

Once again, this is for students in gr. 6-9 only.
