  • The Curveballs That Led Me to Trinity

    Brian Peters, Head of Lower School
    I often think back to my past.  I was born and grew up in Pennsylvania.  I did move a few times within the state, but the fact is that I spent nearly 5 decades there.  I never had any thoughts that I would live anywhere else.  But life has a way of throwing you curveballs.

    Within a few years’ time my daughter makes a move to Texas and gets married.  My wife has a cancer diagnosis.  My daughter then has our first grandchild.  I still remember the brief conversation and the decision that we would also move to Texas.  I think from the moment of making the decision to making the move transpired within 6 months.  That move took us to the Houston area.  

    Within a few years my son-in-law is transferred to Midland with the message that it will only be for a year or two.  Well, that year or two became many years and we moved again to Midland, Texas.

    My life’s work had been serving in public education in Pennsylvania and then in the Houston area. I had worked in school and district leadership roles for nearly twenty years and I was ready for something new…or should I say ready to return to something from my past.

    I was welcomed into Trinity School of Midland to teach fourth grade and that role started 5 years of what are some of the best of my professional life.  I found an environment of people that suited me well.  Within a few years I was asked to take on the role of Head of Lower School.  Again, it was a return to something I had done before.  Again, I have enjoyed several years of great joy working with and leading a fabulous group of people.

    I can’t say enough good things about this community.  Many people say that initially you don’t want to come to Midland, but once you are here you don’t want to leave.  That is true for me and my experience in Midland and at Trinity.

    Many ask what I plan to do next.  I don’t have a definitive answer for that.  As I write this, I am still trying to coordinate the transition to the new Head of Lower School and my own personal move to The Woodlands.  At my final opportunity to address the Lower School with a Chapel Talk, I shared about learning.  I have always been a learner and that is what I continue to do.  I will be open and curious to learn what the future holds for me.

    I want to thank everyone at Trinity for welcoming me, giving me opportunities and allowing for the creation of wonderful memories.  I wish everyone the very, very best!!
