K-8 PROGRAM
At Trinity Lutheran School, students are encouraged to be creative thinkers, problem solvers, and meaningful contributors to our society. Trinity's well-rounded K-8 curriculum focuses on religion, math, language arts, science, visual arts, music, and physical education. As a benefit of our smaller class sizes and close-knit student/teacher/parent relationships, our students enjoy individualized attention and collaborative learning with their peers-- the perfect formula for future success.
