Transportation
Students attending Holy
Trinity School use several modes of transportation. Because of the
school's centralized location in the borough of Ligonier, some
students may walk to school, while other parents may opt to
transport their child by car. Following the guidelines established
by the Ligonier Valley School District, the students are provided
with free bus transportation. Students are expected to behave
properly on the bus. The safety of all is our prime consideration.
A lack of cooperation of safety rules established by the Ligonier
Valley School District or the transportation provider may result in
suspension from riding the bus.
