Trinity Catholic High School was a Roman Catholic high school in Newton, Massachusetts. It was located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston.The school was a co-educational and college preparatory school founded in 1894. The school shut down in 2012, at which point the building that housed its functions was taken over by Cambridge Education Group and established as CATS Academy, a private non-religious school, catering mostly to international students.
The advisory program provided daily contact with a faculty member who offered academic advisement, college preparation tools, and formation for life choices.
In October 2009, the school celebrated its 115th anniversary with a fundraising event that highlighted the school's history, accomplishments, and current and former students. All of the proceeds went to the funding of scholarships for future students. The event featured many prominent community guests including the former mayor of Newton, David Cohen, the Newton Community Chorus, and the current Boston College head hockey coach, Jerry York, who gave a speech. Other speakers included current students and faculty.
