Overview
Good Shepherd Academy serves 220 students in grades Prekindergarten-8. The student:teacher of Good Shepherd Academy is 31:1 and the school's religious affiliation is Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod.
Trinity Christian Academy (TCA) is an inter-denominational ministry, enrolling students from K2 (two years old) through 12th Grade.
We have a full range of programs that you would expect to find in a quality school, including performing arts, visual arts, music, computers, studio and multimedia technology, dual enrollment classes, physical education and a full athletic program registered with the Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA).
At TCA we believe that the spirit is the most important part of a person--it's the only part that is eternal.
So, we integrate "Spirit" into everything we do. Every student takes Bible as an academic subject; every student attends chapel once a week; we buy our curriculum from Christian sources so that the Bible view is integrated; we train in ministry gifts and give students the opportunity to practice them; everything we do is designed to graduate a strong Christian young man or woman.
