I enjoined my time there. It didn’t take long to realize that if you came from money (ie you got rich parents)that you got away with more. The same if you where one of the people with house (a house system think Hogwarts) responsibilities. people in these positions wouldn’t be punished the same way as another kid that did the same thing or even be let off the hook. also athletics is severely under funded and understaffed. we are d1 for girls and d2 for guys do better.

Overall very good school. Heavy emphasis on academics. Also empahsis from certain teachers and administration on encorporating biblical worldview. Teachers and admin care for student's wellbeing (even though admin sometimes doesn't show it outwardly as obviously). Good student environment.

This school is for you if:
- You want your child in an echo chamber of political ideas under the false pretense of "Christian values"
- You want your child to only feel like a "good Christian" if they are high-achieving in school with very little assistance to those who need it.
- You want your child to feel like if they hold a certain political view they are not only a "bad Christian" but they have no one to talk to. They have to find very specific teachers to support them (they exist but they are rare)
- You want your child to be okay with the use of slurs. Because it will never be punished.
- You want to make sure your daughter is constantly conscious of her body because of the way the dress code is enforced
- You want to make sure when your child has health concerns or issues that the school is more concerned with how soon they can make up their work.
My time at this school destroyed my faith in so many ways and it took finally being out for me to find my way back to God.

Overall a welcoming school with great academics and a good community. Heavy focus on academics, with many high-rigor classes and an overall school culture that puts lots of value in grades. Teachers are caring, with most teachers open for feedback and proactive in teaching and reaching out to students. Administration puts a heavy emphasis on behavior and rule-following. School is relatively small, with around 60-80 people per grade in high school. However, clicks and friend groups do form and are apparent throughout the school.

Trinity Christian School students welcome new students with open arms and are very friendly. Trinity provides numerous clubs and sports for students to get involved in. There are many chances to speak on topics you are passionate about through senior thesis. The teachers and administration at Trinity are interested in the students well being and interests as well as their education and work to create a safe, exciting environment for students to enjoy learning. Sometimes there is a large amount of academic pressure from teachers and fellow students, but it only pushes one to try harder.

The best part of my trinity experience is my friends that I met and have gotten so close with. Another thing I love is the science classes. I would like the teachers to teach a bit better.

The Christian Studies/Science departments here teach lies, like that Neanderthals were made up by the scientists with monkey bones and plaster. The teacher that told me that still works there in 2023.
Trinity teaches girls not to be 'stumbling blocks' for boys, not for the boys to not be inappropriate with the girls. They told us adult men can't control themselves. (Seriously, they said this with male teachers in the room with the high school girls. What were you implying?)
I once saw a teacher leave a disabled child in a closet because his disability wasn’t lining up with her view of Jesus. She mocked him in front of 30 other children. I have been grabbed by teachers and groped by other (male) students. I once saw a teacher threaten to strangle a 9th grader. They don’t care about your child to the fullest unless you work there or donate money.
My time as a Trinity student was hellish. I don't care enough about dealing with this damage to ever step foot in a church again.

Good for college prep. Very strong academics but the culture at the school can be frustrating sometimes. In my experience there were a lot of people who would preach "love thy neighbor" but would absolutely not practice what they preach - they were judgmental people, and many expected you to fit into a box of what they found acceptable. Some people really liked it here but for me it was ok. I liked that the emphasis was on college readiness, and I feel that has been a blessing to be able to grow academically, but I personally did not like the kind of culture the school breeds. 5/10 for me personally.

As a former Trinity student, the school is definitely not terrible. The teachers (for the most part, at least) are caring, and the smaller class sizes, especially for Honors/AP, allow students to learn more effectively and have a more individualized education. Sports culture is HUGE- almost every student plays at least one sport (some do ones outside of school such as gymnastics, dance, etc.), and many play all three seasons, so I would not recommend coming to this school if you do not play a sport or at least are not willing to pick one up. My biggest issue with Trinity would be their diversity. There are virtually no other races outside of white and Asian people, and as a black person, racist jokes behind your back are extremely common and saying the n-word is glorified. Casual racism towards Asians TO THEIR FACES is normalized, and administration does absolutely nothing about it. If you are white, play a sport, and are cliquey, go for TCS. If not, reconsider.

I love the Christian community at Trinity and the challenges that it presents academically as well as in preparation for college. It is very easy to get involved in clubs, leadership, sports, and school events. The teachers all incorporate Christ into their classes and most clearly care about their students personally - not just academically. Trinity has given my the best of friends and a foundation that makes me who I am as a Christian, student, and person.

I have been at Trinity for 4 years and have some pros and cons. The teachers and staff are amazing and care about everyone, especially in the smaller classes. My Spanish teacher who was from Panama got me close to fluent in just 2 years. Sports are alright (the tennis team, which I was apart of for 3 years is still very new). Academics are very strong, and while they don't offer all AP courses, the ones they do are strong and include all majors of study.

Rigorous academically and biblically. One of the high school graduation requirements is to choose a biblical topic to defend before a panel. Blue ribbon school with excellent achievements, honors, and college prep. High quality faculties and staff. Excellent support in all grades. STEM program. Parents encouraged but not require to be involved. After school enrichment program. Excellent summer camps. Best Christian school in the area.

My child began in person high school August 2020 in the middle of the pandemic coming from a small Christian middle school. Compared to our middle school experience, TCS at first seem unwelcoming, with masks, lunch in the classroom and children already in friend groups from lower/middle school. Even participating in a fall JV team there was an already established starting group and the new kids (at least my child felt) were not welcomed. However, winter sport proved far more welcoming, fantastic coach, team building and in time, my outgoing child was able to meet more students through sport and in the classroom. My child is now really enjoying the HS experience at TCS. The freshman teachers are enthusiastic, engaging and have provided plenty of challenge but also extra assistance if needed. My child has a learning plan that teachers are honoring well. It's been a blessing to have a challenging Christian in person education and extra curriculars throughout the pandemic.

Trinity values truth, service, and courage, and they truly practice what they preach. As a school, they equip students with the ability to utilize reason to form arguments and understand the world around them, rather than just their feelings or popular opinion. Students are enabled to reach their full academic and spiritual potential, and are valued not just as students but as image-bearers of the one true Christ.

I am so thankful for Trinity Christian School! Here, students are able to ask questions, pursue truth, express doubts, make mistakes and learn from them, all within a safe environment surrounded by teachers who love, encourage, and pray for them daily. This school seeks to honor God in all they do, and it shows. Thank you, Trinity!!

I really love this school, It is at times challenging (especially a person with ADD) but the teachers are always willing to help and the lair offers great free tutors during the day. This is the place if you want you child to have a excellent collage work ethic since many have described this place like collage but you classes can affect this. This place has good accommodations of extra time on tests and quizzes (that's what I have) and if your child has a defect or some doctor has important information of your Childs health or mental state the curriculum can perhaps be altered ( I don't have to take a language since I'm so bad at learning new languages so based on my history and a specialists opinion I now have a study hall but will have to take a culture class in collage, I think this is a wonderful trade). The teachers are top notch and I have not once had a bad teacher. overall this school in my opinion is spectacular.
