Overview
Trinity Lutheran School has been an integral part of the ministry of Trinity Lutheran Church for many years.
TLS is committed to a distinctly Christian education that provides an environment emphasizing the teaching and appreciation of God's Word as it applies to students' studies and to their character. We are a supplement to the Christian home.
TLS intentionally offers affordable tuition for families who might not ever have the opportunity to attend a Christian school. Trinity Lutheran Church believes in raising up disciples of Christ so much, the church supports this school ministry and pays up to approximately half of student tuition.
Our Missions is to equip students with the tools for learning through a Christ-centered education.
Our Vision is to develop lifelong learners who discern and apply God's truth as they serve and lead wherever God calls.
