Trinity has had so much of a downfall in 2-3 years they went from 90 students to only 40 for a school year. Toxic Environment. Racist teachers. Major drug use. We have had students self harm in school. Lie in marketing. Turnover rate for staff is high. They raised the tuition to $23k, meanwhile there is a-lot more private schools that are probably cheaper you will get more of ur moneys worth. The management is so bad. Save your money parents

Poor - as noted by the student review prior the school is fraught w/learning disabilities and depression. The Administration is uncommunicative and thinks they know a lot more than they do. Their leadership is inconsistent or absent. There are a few outstanding teachers (like Mr. Poux) but not a sufficient number to overcome the lack of leadership. Spend your money on Fletcher or a Montessori school.

School has been going downhill for the past couple of years. Now see all of those 5 star reviews from 7 or 8 years ago, the school was decent back then. This is school is not a good environment for your kid if they suffer through depression. Most of the kids there are depressed and pick it up from each other making it a continual depression. Now me personally I picked up my depression from this schooling environment due to that. They claim they help with depression but that is far from the truth due to this. We have had people cut themselves in class before does not sound like good environment now huh. The administration lacks experience. Things gotten so bad the old owner left the school last year. I wrote this review to save parents from wasting tuition money on this school, and to save kids from constant depression.

Our son has been at Trinity for 4 years and will graduate this year. We have had a very good experience with the Trinity staff and students. The teachers are consistently helping the students to achieve their best , while maintaining a family like atmosphere where everyone matters. Trinity is a place where teenager are encouraged to be themselves and express their thoughts and values in a healthy environment. We were very thankful to find what we consider a school with a heart! Learning is a lifestyle and Trinity's atmosphere encourages students to discover the fun of learning while the value of each individual is protected and nurtured. Connie and Craig May

We love this small private high school, which features small class sizes, extremely caring teachers and staff, and a interesting and often quirky student body. What most impresses me is the demonstrated desire by the staff to constantly learn and grow as teachers. Every summer the teachers participate in staff development around a particular need they see in their students. During the school year this pays off for students and their families as the school implements new ideas based on their research and--this is so important--their students needs. In the three years we've had a students there we've seen her develop academically, emotionally and socially. Now we have a second child at the school. Financially this is not easy for us--but the difference it makes for our kids is worth every penny!

We are so grateful (and relieved!) to have found a school that our son wants to go to every day and where he feels successful. The teachers make an effort to teach the material in a way that engages the students and considers their individual learning styles and interests, without all the unnecessary pressure and load of homework at most schools today.

I have watched Trinity grow over the past several years and I have seen nothing but outstanding performance from both the staff and the students. I have seen young adults with no hope for an academic future find a place at Trinity that both accepts and nurtures their individual learning style. The principal has a clam kind heart and his vision is to see young adults succeed. I highly recommend sending any child to this school and know that they will be given the chance to achieve wonderful things.

Trinity is a wonderful school with small classes and knowledgable, attentive teachers. The administration keeps parents informed and encourages us to be involved. The principal is a gem of a man who is loved by his students and is a firm, but fair disciplinarian. Trinity has been like family to us, where my son has been able to flourish and grow not only academically, but spiritually, and personally as well.

My son attended Trinity after being expelled from his previous school. Trinity Prep provided the supportive and structured environment we didn't know how to give him at home. We've become better parents and better Christians thanks to Trinity. They went out of their way to get to know him as an individual and to address his academic needs personally. Before he went to Trinity, our son didn't want to go to college, now he's on the Dean's List.
