Byrnes Closing: More Updates

Just a short post with a few updates.

Looks like Brandis Winstead is taking an asst headmaster job at Trinity after all, so 6th will likely go to Clanton and Geddings for English and Math, respectively.  Also, the 6th grade at Trinity will exist for only one year before being dissolved.  For anyone who thinks this is odd, there are some Byrnes board members with children going into 6th grade so this was clearly worked out with them in mind.  In 2013,-14, Trinity reverts to a 7-12 school like they've always been, so if you have a child starting 5th grade this fall, he/she will have to wait 2 years until 7th grade to start trinity. 

Still no word on which upper school teachers will have jobs at TB aside from Amell for football.  The Trinity faculty is very strong making it hard to figure out who they would need from Byrnes.  If enrollment goes high enough they may have need, but Byrnes never had that many in high school to begin with and it's unlikely 100% will want to transfer considering that after next year they will be paying Trinity's full tuition.
