Trinity Lutheran 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.
