Our Toddler Program
Our toddler program provides a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for your child to learn and grow. We instill in your child the knowledge of God’s love for him/her. Toddlers experience a short preschool time in the mornings that involves Jesus Time, group time, and then activities that relate to weekly themes and Jesus Time. Our toddlers are introduced to letters, numbers, colors, and shapes, etc. The children learn through play and various learning activities. This classroom offers full and part time rates.
Our Preschool Program
Our Preschool program provides an educational experience for 3 year olds in a loving, Christian environment. The children begin learning the school environment with a curriculum utilized for teaching literacy, reading, and writing skills. The children explore and experiment with the world around them using hands-on learning activities. We teach and instill an understanding of respectable Christian values throughout the curriculum. We offer full and part time Preschool rates.
Our Pre-Kindergarten Program
Our Pre-Kindergarten program utilizes a curriculum created specifically for 4 and 5 year olds. The teachers build a community of learning by using all of the core domains including emotional, physical, cognitive, and linguistic. The curriculum also integrates all of the curricular areas of reading and language arts, math, science, social studies, health, and art into the daily instruction. We plan comprehensive lessons and high interest activities that engage the children and allow them to explore at many different levels. Children are introduced to Christian education while learning to share, play together, form friendships and take the first steps in discovering who they are as a child of God. Pre-kindergarten is offered every morning or full time.
Our Teachers
Our teachers and staff are committed to excellence in Early Education. They are highly trained and experienced in Early Childhood Education. They will love, care for, and teach your child every day. Our teachers are life-long learners and regularly attend continuing education classes and conferences to better themselves as educators. Our head classroom teachers have over 55 years of combined experience.
Play
We believe that children learn best through play. Children are given the opportunity to explore and experiment the world around them through their own play. Teachers are engaged in meaningful play and developmentally appropriate activities with the children. We value play experiences as an avenue for learning.
Partnering with Parents
We encourage strong parental involvement in the program. We know that parents play the primary role in their child's learning and development and we believe that a partnership between families and teachers is essential in the growth, development, and well-being of a child. We value this partnership with you in our early education program. Families are invited to participate in classroom activities, school events, field trips, and much more! We will provide parent resources, support, and encouragement and we strive to reach out to all families in Christian love. Family events and activities are offered all throughout the year. You will create wonderful family memories at our school carnival, family movie nights, and many other parent/child events hosted by our PTL.

Business Review
"We have sent our little girl to Trinity when she turned 18 months old and we have loved seeing her grow and learn so much at the school ever since. The teachers, faculty, and staff are all wonderful and you can tell are all passionate about what they do and all the kids that attend. The facilities are kept very clean, the outdoor play area is extremely large and enclosed, and the kids are always active and having a great time. We love how the kids from all ages interact and learn and grow together. Our girl has best friends in every grade and it truly is a family atmosphere there. The school is also very active with events and fun things to do for the kids as well, so there's always something to look forward to. And of course there's the education which is excellent in our opinion. Our child has blossomed while attending Trinity and has learned and developed so much over the course of the year. I'm glad to be part of the family and look forward to watching our child grow at Trinity."
