School Reviews
5 I have graduated 2 students (2013 and 2017) from this school and have one more in her Junior year. Trinity's Christian Classical approach prepares their students for college in all aspects of their life: spiritual, academic, physical and socially. The care that teachers show for their students is amazing! These students leave Trinity and are life-time learners! - Posted by Parent - Bella Bretz |

5 Trinity Christian School is one of the top schools in Hawaii. Academic standards are very high. Teachers are top quality. We love the classical methods of education-- time-tested methods that really capitalize on the way God created students to learn. And the gospel is taught and preached faithfully. I am grateful to be a part of the TCS family - Posted by Parent - Todd Morikawa |
