How to Apply

Application and Enrollment Process

Trinity Christian School focuses on bringing the home, church, and school into a partnership for the purpose of training the next generation. Our mission is to graduate students with a firm Biblical Foundation and an Excellent Education.
In keeping with that mission, TCS invites the following:

Families who are defined according to the Biblical perspective of marriage; that marriage is between a male and a female.
Families who are growing in their personal Christian walk and are involved in a local Bible-believing church. Trinity Christian School requires that at least one parent have a personal saving relationship with Jesus Christ.
Students whose academic records demonstrate proven capabilities to succeed at Trinity Christian School. Students’ records are carefully evaluated during the application process. Students should be performing at or above grade level.
Students whose recommendations show a behavioral history that matches the behavioral expectations of Trinity Christian School. Students who have been expelled should not apply until they have completed a successful year in another school.

Submit the completed Online Application and application fee of $75.

Submit copy of birth certificate.
Submit immunization record.
Submit most recent report card.
Submit any diagnostic testing the student has undergone.
Submit most recent achievement test scores. (ex: STARR, SAT, Tera Nova)

All the above documents must be received by the Office of Admissions before the steps listed below may be taken in the admissions process.

Schedule a new student screening test: Once all of the above documents are received by the Office of Admissions, you will be contacted to schedule a screening test. A screening test is required for all new students. Students in 1st through 12th grade complete the MAP assessment, a computer adaptive achievement test in Mathematics and Reading. These tests may reveal the need for further testing and resource placement. PreK and Kindergarten students complete an age appropriate assessment with a TCS educator.
Schedule a parent interview. Interviews are required for all new families. Both parents are required to attend (unless a one-parent family). The student should also attend if applying to 6th-12th grades. The date and time of the interview will be scheduled with the Office of Admissions upon completion of the application materials and testing.
After your interview, we will email you an Online Contract of Enrollment. Once that is completed, submitted, and a registration fee of $400 is paid, you are officially finished with the Admissions process!
