FAQ Trinity

Home / Trinity Lutheran School / About / FAQ Trinity
Do I have to be Lutheran in order to attend Trinity Lutheran School?

No. Trinity Lutheran School welcomes all students. Trinity teaches that the Bible is God’s own Word and truth, without error and that all humans are sinful and in need of a Savior.

Do students at Trinity wear uniforms?

No, our standardized dress code states the following: “Trinity Lutheran School believes that a student standardized dress code reflects the mission to “Lift High the Cross of Jesus Christ, Teaching and Caring for All.” The standardized dress code will reflect our mission…” (For more information consult the school handbook.)

What is Trinity’s approach to discipline?

Love and Logic stresses that students own the problem when they misbehave and will be responsible for righting the wrong.
