TINTON FALLS, N.J. – July 11, 2024 – Trinity Hall, an all-girls college preparatory high school in Tinton Falls, broke ground on a new campus construction project on July 11, 2024. At a groundbreaking ceremony, the Trinity Hall community, local officials, architects and construction partners gathered with the Trinity Hall Board of Trustees on campus to commence the project and celebrate this significant milestone for the school.
Since its establishment on the former Fort Monmouth military base, Trinity Hall’s campus has continually evolved over the past nine years. After moving its campus to Tinton Falls in 2015, Trinity Hall renovated the former child development center before the start of the 2016-2017 school year. In 2018, Trinity Hall expanded their school building with a two-story addition that featured multiple classrooms, administrative offices, a chapel and a front lobby. The current expansion project will include a new academic building and extend the existing community space.
Trinity Hall plans to provide more space to further enhance its programmatic offerings and community needs. The new academic building will add state-of-the-art STEM and fabrication labs, a new visual arts and performing arts wing, and a suite dedicated to student support and wellness. The construction process will also include renovations of the existing academic classroom footprint and an expansion of its main community space. The construction project is anticipated to be completed by the fall of 2025.
“As we begin this next phase of growth for Trinity Hall, we are excited to provide more space and opportunities for our students, faculty, staff and whole community to thrive in,” said Trinity Hall Head of School Theresa Kiernan. “With the approval of the Tinton Falls Planning Board and the Fort Monmouth Economic Revitalization Authority, we are eager to start construction on campus this summer. The new academic building and expansion of our Commons will allow us to enhance our academic offerings, provide additional areas for student support and wellness, and encourage more gatherings on campus by doubling our community space. We love our location in Tinton Falls, and we are looking forward to continuing our partnership with the local community here.”
Trinity Hall Co-founder and Board Development Chair Victoria Gmelich said at the event, “Trinity Hall has always responded to the needs of the girls. The girls are first and foremost in our minds in everything we do. I invite everyone to take part in what is really the biggest initiative for women to ever hit the Jersey Shore.”
