TCA seventh-graders Morgan West of Trenton and Morgan Rhodes of Hamilton make a plea for peace on their banner, which took second place at TCA’s 21st Annual Creativity Fair.

Trenton Catholic Academy held its 21st Annual Creativity Fair on May 2. The fair dates back to TCA’s predecessor, McCorristin Catholic High School. More than 300 attendees milled throughout the gym and surveyed futuristic models, sculptures, banners, children’s books and other creative submissions. A total of 163 projects spanning nine separate categories were submitted by more than 200 fifth- to eighth-grade students. Student members of the Monsignor McCorristin chapter of the National Honor Society organized the event

Along with TCA, six other schools participated in the 2013 Creativity Fair: Our Lady of Sorrows/St. Anthony, St. Raphael, St. Mary, St. Paul, St. Paul and Incarnation/St. James. A total of 39 awards were presented, including 13 to TCA, 12 to OLS/SA, and five to St. Raphael. TCA’s Upper School faculty determined the winners through blind judging.
