Our family loves Trinity Lutheran School! The Ministry Center teachers (3k, 4k and Kindergarten) are so special and they do a wonderful job of laying the foundation for both education and developing a strong faith. The larger school (1st - 8th) offers a challenging education, numerous activities, and a safe and nuturing environment for kids to grow spiritually. Our kids love going to school everyday!
