The curriculum at Trinity is Bible centered, supporting our objectives of Christian education. The Christian religion is taught not only as an added subject area but as a way of life permeating the total curriculum. As the child progresses through the grades, he learns more and more of the chief doctrines of the Bible. In order to further help him in his spiritual life, the child systematically learns from memory the chief parts of Christian doctrines, prayers, Bible verses, and hymns. All children enrolled at Trinity must take part in the religion program.

A copy of report cards and achievement testing must be received for all transferring students before applications will be approved. Trinity will ask permission be given to contact the student's former school to aid in determining a student's performance and discipline status. If permission is denied, it may have a negative outcome on the application being processed. Both academic and behavior performance will be considered and evaluated in determining acceptance into Trinity Lutheran School.
FINAL APPROVAL
The progress of each new student will be evaluated twice during the school year by the Board of Christian Day School. The first evaluation will come at the end of the first 6 week grading period. The BOCDS will ask for a recommendation from the child's teacher and principal for continued enrollment. The second evaluation will occur at the designated time for pre-registration. This evaluation will determine whether the student is recommended for the following school year.
PRE-REGISTRATION
All families currently having children at Trinity Lutheran School and Trinity Lutheran Early Childhood will be given a chance to pre-register their children for the next year at a discounted registration rate.
Our ultimate goal is to meet the learning needs of students so that they can experience academic success and personal growth. Therefore, each student will be evaluated on an individual basis with the attempt to determine our ability to meet those needs. A student whose physical, emotional, and/or academic needs do not exceed our staffing capabilities will be given consideration for admission.
