Our child attended Trinity for a year and we were very excited for our child to be a part of the school. However, after the first year we realized Trinity Is not the school we thought it would be We found some of the teachers and administrators to be insensitive, even cold when dealing with some children and parents. The school leaders seem to be more concerned with the school image than with than with the needs of the students. We are very disappointed with the school and will not be returning.

I bought into the excellent marketing of this school and place my kids there for one year. It was the worst year of our life. This school values acclaim, awards, and prestige far above any Christian world view it claims to hold. There was no warmth or love shown except through one teacher. There was no accountability given to the staff whatsoever. The students were held to a very high impossible standard while the teachers could not even keep their Edline accounts updated. One teacher would routinely make typographical errors that result in hours of lost time researching the wrong answers. This teacher would send out via email corrections to her own work up until 9:00pm at night for assignments or testing due the very next morning! Fun subjects such as Bible, drama, and science were quickly drained of all enthusiasm due to over-complicated assignments and hours of tedious homework. Creativity was non-existent. Before enrollment we were promised at least two sports that were not available once joining. The tutoring program was extra and required payment up front. Again, there was no accountability and sessions were either cut short or missed altogether. The lower school seemed to be better managed but the upper school was a total disaster. We went through three principles in one year. The worst aspect was the hostility of the staff toward the students and any parent with a concern. There was an underlying attitude of judgment and intolerance that I have never seen in any school much less a Christian one. The management of this school is completely out of touch with what is going on with the kids. For a small study body, there is no mentoring at all. There is a board of directors, but only one visit the school (he speaks at EVERY forum) and I have never seen or met any of the others. I doubt they even know what this school has become. When it comes to this school, looks are deceiving! A year of our lives we will never get back. And they don't do exit interviews or surveys so there is no room for improvement! Before you send you precious child to this school get a roster from the year before and CALL these parents! I wish I had been warned!
