Trumbull High School
Trumbull High School is divided into three houses designated A,B, C. This house plan provides some advantages of a small school while retaining the benefits of a large school. Each house has its own house principal, guidance counselors, and support staff. Students are
assigned to their respective houses by alphabet. Those students whose name begins with A-F are assigned to A House, Rita McDougald-Campbell, House Principal; those whose name begins with G-N, B House, Julie Luby, House Principal; and those with O-Z are in C House, Lucinda Timpanelli, House Principal. Since students are also assigned alphabetically to homerooms, their homerooms are located in respective houses. A student’s classes will meet throughout the building.
The Associate to the Dean’s Office position is filled by Dennis McLaughlin. He acts as an “arm” of the Dean of Students, works to foster positive student interactions, has daily contact with our Security officials, and provides another resource for our teaching staff.
The Crisis Intervention Specialist at Trumbull High School is Bill Mecca. He is trained as a social worker and as a drug and alcohol counselor.
NONDISCRIMINATION IN INSTRUCTION (POLICY NO. JBA)
The Trumbull Board of Education will not discriminate against any pupil on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry or disability in the organization and application of the educational programs and services it operates. The Superintendent will continually evaluate instructional policies and practices in terms of this policy and will report annually to the Board the results of such evaluation, recommending modification of any policies and practices which do not comply as well as appropriate remedial action to eliminate the effects of any discrimination. In evaluating instructional policies and practices in terms of this policy,
the Superintendent will call upon the advice and counsel members of the instructional staff.
