TUITION ASSISTANCE – We strive to ensure that cost doesn’t interfere with a parent’s desire to give their child the gift of a lifetime, an excellent Christ-centered education that prepares them for life in the world today as well as eternal life.

1. We are Christ-Centered!
We believe the Bible is the completely accurate and true Word of God. We believe we have salvation and eternal life through faith alone, by the grace of God and not by anything we have earned or accomplished for ourselves. We believe in Jesus Christ as our Savior, the Lord of our lives. These core beliefs impact and influence every aspect of our school. Our School Mission Statement says it clearly: Trinity Lutheran Church and School form one community of faith for the purpose of making disciples of Jesus Christ through a faithful Word and Sacrament Ministry.
