This was my daughters first year to attend school. She entered PreK with HTCS. I was nervous at first but as time went on, she did great. I am thrilled with all her achievements this year and all is owed to the wonderful teachers she had. I am sad that her first year is over however I look forward to all the possibilities she will have with HTCS in the future. Faculty and staff... YOU ARE TRULY THE BEST!!!! See you next year. Take care and God Bless you all.

This was our first year at the school, so I was not sure what to expect. I and my children were welcomed and made to feel like part of a family. The teachers have been phenominal when it came to providing quality instruction and feedback to me about my children. I truly feel we are in the right school.

I have children in both 2nd grade and preschool at HTCS and am glad that they can both continue at the same school until 8th grade. We're thrilled about the individual attention HTCS's small class sizes offer - my older child is already performing math exercises 1 year ahead of her grade and can continue to compete with her classmates in math over the summer thanks to multiple year-round online programs the school offers.

My son is in the 6th grade at Holy Trinity. He has received nothing short of excellent instruction during his time there (since PK). Teachers are caring but hold each child accountable.

Terrific learning environment and aftercare program. Small classes and super competent, disciplined teachers. My child has blossomed since starting at HTCS in the 4th grade a year ago. Reasonable tuition rates to boot.

HTCS is the best place for a child to be and grow to become a responsible, loving, intelligent, and a smart individual. I would recommend this school to parents that really do want to invest into their children's future. More importantly, my child looks forward to going to school and learning more. 5 stars.

My son has attended PS and PK at Holy Trinity and it has been an amazing experience - for him and for us. The teachers and staff are top notch and above all create a loving, nurturing environment for the students. We highly recommend it for anyone looking for a Catholic school for the children.

I love this school: the beautiful old building with its arched hallways, high windows & old woodwork; the peaceful feel of the whole setting; the courtesy of the staff & the well mannered children. With quiet sureness, Holy Trinity has its priorities straight on safety, academics and ethics. The contrast between Holy Trinity where my child goes & the nearby public middle school where I teach says it all.

My wife and I are very pleased with the excellent education both our daughters receive at Holy Trinity. The schools offers many extra-curricular activities; i.e. computer facilities, athletic programs, National Junior Honor Society. Tuition is less than most of the other area Catholic schools. Thumbs up for Holy Trinity.

I am a parent of a child at HTS and have been associated with the school for 11 years. Preschool -5th grade education were excellent. I have serious concerns about middle school. What I see and hear from my child,other children in those grade levels is that the teachers are always sarcastic, ridicule the kids and generally make the whole school experience miserable. In favor of the school-there is a new pricipal this year and he seems to be gettin a 'handle' on the situattion. Hopefully he will be able to shake things up a bit.

I recently graduated from Holy Trinity and it was the best experience I ever had. All the teachers cared about me. My class was only 17 students and we had been going there together since Kindergarten. Dr. Vanders is an Amazing principal, you'll get a great education for your children.

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.

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.
