We have been at Trinity Lutheran for 5 years. My daughter graduated 8th grade a few years ago. Her high school teachers who so impressed with her respect for adults, her dedication and work ethic plus how far she was ahead of the public school students. As a Freshman she went directly into honors classes and will graduate high school this year with almost a full year of college credits.
