I have experienced a very positive 2 years at Trinity. My boys have dedicated teachers. They offer several field trips throughout the year. They are able to form a strong well rounded approach to learning in future years. Students graduating from 8th grade from Trinity are being accepted to the top private schools and performing art academies.

Four to five years ago the school would have received a much higher grade, but the last few years have really seen a decrease in enrollment, parent involvement, and overall quality. Enrollment numbers on this site are not accurate - approximately 105 students at this time for a k-8. classes are being combined, staff being cut, and enrichment programs no longer exist. Music(theory & performance) has been watered down to a mandatory "choir" and the theater program which the previous reviewer mocked has been discontinued.To clarify, the students who went to Sacramento did not go to see a play; they were honored at the state festival and chosen to perform for state legislators. That should have been a positive experience for the school, but they have chosen to discontinue their youth theater. Sports teams are forced to use younger and younger children to compensate for lower numbers. Most of the traditions of this school have been displaced and communication between administration and parents is very poor. Quality of staff is uneven; to be fair, there are several strong and very dedicated teachers, but unfortunately that is not the case across the board.

A school that concentrates more on the theater rather than academic. Wow, went to Sacramento for a play, what can you show on grades. I have a cousin that goes there.... he's not doing very well in school, but somehow gets on the honor roll. Just don't get it.
