Trinity Luthern is a great teaching facility. My son can be hard to handle & he is in a class comprised of 10 boys!! They teach far more than the fundamentals of education--socialization, strong core ethics/values, religion, and RESPECT. I find a slight few of the staff to be gossipy?? & some of the other parents to be condescending sp?? --Honestly, that is the case everywhere; regardless if a parent is exposed to it. The overall results with my son have been wonderful & well worth the tightening of my budget to afford it.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Test scores

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
