We want to take this time to introduce to you our uniform policy that will be coming for the 2023-2024 school year. This policy has four fundamental benefits.
First, uniforms prevent the application of subjective standards of dress in the classroom. Parents, students, and teachers know that the uniform meets the school’s standards of modesty. Other classical schools that operate without uniforms have commented on the amount of time their boards spend on issues of inappropriate attire. Uniforms allow our board and staff to focus on academic concerns.
Second, uniforms are a positive influence in the school. TCCS places particular value on a disciplined learning environment. A child learns that when he is wearing a Trinity uniform, he will be engaging in studious activity. The anecdotal evidence from schools across the nation showing the advantage of uniforms in the instructional setting is overwhelming. This environment makes it easier for TCCS to complete its primary task—the education of children...

In “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” the Great Lion Aslan, with the help of the four Pevensie children, defeats the White Witch and saves the magical land of Narnia. One earth year later, in “Prince Caspian,” the children return to Narnia to find a thousand years have passed and Narnia is now ruled by a human race known as the Telmarines. Though Caspian is a good king, he is killed by his evil brother Miraz, who usurps the throne.
Not content merely to seize military and political power, Miraz erases from historical memory both Aslan and the...

As fall has given way to winter and we enter the season of Advent, we have much to celebrate and be thankful for! God has been so gracious to us in every way. Your students are growing in leaps and bounds in both mind and spirit. We thank God for this gift. We also thank God for the gift of His eternal Son. From the promise of the conquering Messiah in Genesis 3:15 to the prophecies of his birth in Isaiah 7 and 9 and the fulfilling of these promises and prophecies in the Gospels, Christmas is at the heart of the entire Bible. The Incarnation is not an afterthought or a “Plan B” for God. It was clearly...

Greetings! This newsletter is for a very specific purpose. It is somewhat lengthy, but please read carefully through it and the links provided below. Anytime God works through his people to build his kingdom the enemy takes notice and will do all he can to tear it down or to put an end to it somehow. We are resolved to stay the course no matter what form this opposition takes. The command of Jesus to disciple the nations is too important a task to be slack with, and our children must be our first priority. We want to be proactive...

Greetings! Fall is upon us in Southeastern Idaho. As the leaves turn and harvest is in full swing, we are reminded of the goodness of God! How gracious he is to provide food for his creation! At the same time, after the harvest, things will shrivel up, turn brown, and ultimately die. Each season brings a cycle of new life, growth, harvest, and death. In John 12:24, Jesus tells Phillip and Andrew (along with some Greeks), “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces...

Greetings! Welcome to our first installment of The Trinity Tribune, a newsletter where you will find school highlights, upcoming events, and other pertinent information related to TCCS. Also watch for the “Prayer Point” for opportunity to join together in prayer over a specific Trinity related topic.
We made it through the first three weeks of school! Starting a new school from the ground up is no small venture. It’s one that requires temperance and fortitude (two of the seven classical virtues...
