Trinity Thompson, a 2024 graduate of Columbus High School, is embracing another step in his pathway toward his career dream: to become a computer programmer. He is attending Blinn College in Brenham this fall. The new environment promises to provide some challenging experiences such as balancing a full college schedule with a future work-study program as he lives in a college dorm.
The class he is most excited about involves learning the basics of code and how to write code for computers. He has had a strong and long interest in computer technology and cannot wait to learn more. He consistently appeared on the A/B Honor Roll all four years of high school. Varsity baseball and basketball were among his athletic passions. His community work included being a volunteer custodian for the Columbus First Church of Nazarene and working as a volunteer with the M.D. Anderson Blood Drive.
Ultimately, he would like to travel the “fouryear” degree path and earn a bachelor’s degree finishing at Texas State in San Marcos. The degree would enable him to broaden possibilities for top job choices.
