About the School

  • Trinity Lutheran School is a K-8th Grade Christian Day School supported and run by the membership of Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church.
  • Trinity is a member congregation of the Church of the Lutheran Confession.
  • Trinity Lutheran Church and Trinity Lutheran School are committed to God's command, “Preach the gospel to every creature.” Therefore, we will consider the application of nonmember children to our school.
  • However, we must take into account the limits of our school's facilities and teaching staff and deny admission if we are at maximum capacity.
  • Likewise, all Scriptural directives relating to the nature and function of a Christian School must be observed.
  • At Trinity Lutheran School we teach your children about Jesus their Savior and about His will for their lives.
  • We teach these things as they are taught in the Bible.
  • As we teach your children, we pray that God's Word will take hold in their hearts and become an active force in their lives.
