As an educational arm of Trinity Lutheran Church, Trinity Lutheran School seeks to guide and assist parents in the education and nurture of the children at Trinity Lutheran Church. Trinity Lutheran School serves families by assisting parents to carry out their parental responsibilities in Christian education. We promote a close relationship between school, home and congregation. We encourage parents to provide the primary training of their children, to have family devotions, and to take their children to weekly worship services. The school exists as a secondary partner in the Christian and overall training of the children. Since Trinity Lutheran School is part of the community of St. George, Utah, we also seek to provide this opportunity to other parents in the community. Thus all children regardless of their membership or religion will be given an opportunity to be a part of Trinity Lutheran School. Trinity Lutheran School holds high, yet appropriate, expectations for its students and also believes that all students need to be successful. Students need to be both challenged and helped toward success. Appropriate evaluation of student performance, both formal and informal, occurs before, during and after teaching. Trinity Lutheran School seeks to develop the basic skills of learning; thinking; solving problems, making value judgments and decisions; and respecting self, others, and property. Our school also teaches students how to apply concepts such as individual responsibility, the common good, salvation by grace alone, and living "by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me". Gal. 2:20. Guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit, Trinity Lutheran School provides Christ-centered training in God’s Word integrated with excellence in education. The central purpose of our school is to nurture each child’s faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and to equip each child to live and to bear witness to that faith. The teachers and staff of Trinity personally and publicly bear witness to their faith in Jesus Christ. Teachers and students daily study His Word as found in the Bible and taught through the Lutheran Confessions. God’s law is taught without apology. The Gospel of God’s forgiveness through His Son, Jesus Christ, is taught with joy daily and relationships are based upon the Gospel and forgiveness. |
