We believe that a Christian school, in which every subject is taught from a Christian point of view, and where the teaching reflects the spirit of Christ, is more successful in leading children to a vital Christian life than any other agency except the Christian home.
We believe that Trinity Lutheran School thus supplements the religious training which the child receives at home, and in some cases is the main source of training through which a child learns about his or her Savior.
We believe that Trinity Lutheran School must serve as a mission agency in the community.
We believe that Trinity Lutheran School follows the directive of our Lord, "teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you," and thus makes Him the focal point of its educational process.
We believe that the uniqueness of our school lies to a great extent in the consecration with which its teachers address themselves to their tasks.
We believe that this school, in all its teaching and practices, subscribes to and supports the doctrines and doctrinal practices of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, as outlined in the Holy Scriptures and Book of Concord.
We believe that Trinity Lutheran School, empowered by the Holy Spirit and viewing the pupil through the cross of Christ, is concerned with the child's total needs... physical, social, intellectual, and spiritual.
We believe that both the future of the church and of the country lie in the hands of the children. Therefore, as a Christian school, our school is one of the best agencies to:
- Develop in children the necessary skills and attitudes to make them responsible citizens of their community.
- Teach children their proper relationship to God and their fellow men.
- Preserve its pupils to life eternal in the Kingdom of God.
To these ends Trinity Lutheran School operates without profit to provide instruction to children in all subjects in accordance with the tenets of Biblical faith and in the interests of good citizenship. |
