The school is situated on a 26-acre (110,000 m2) campus[2] at 926 Newfield Avenue. The school had an initial capacity of approximately 1,200 students, however, due to cost concerns and the demand for smaller student to faculty ratios, has since reduced its enrollment in order to set itself apart from other schools. It was originally known as Stamford Catholic High School, but after other local Catholic Schools closed, was grouped with remaining students to create Trinity Catholic High School.
On February 27, 2020, the Most Reverend Frank J. Caggiano, Bishop of Bridgeport, announced[3] that Trinity Catholic High School would not reopen its doors for the 2020–21 academic year due to enrollment and budget issues.
