Events & Announcements
Crisp air and golden hues officially welcome fall!
Our auditorium space is multifunctional and used daily as our cafeteria. All of our students can take advantage of the lunch options that are provided on campus or bring their own lunch. Students can plan to eat inside the auditorium or utilize the outdoor patio style seating area just outside of the building. It has become quite popular for students to order lunches to be delivered to the school. We do not encourage this as standard practice for many reasons but the main issue is that there are often delays in deliveries which impacts the ability to eat lunch prior to the start of the class post the lunch period. Additionally, we would like to limit the number of “outsiders” on campus during the school day.

Sporting Event Guidelines
Our Student Section is on FIRE! Thank you for your support and excitement as you pump up the crowd and cheer our Lions on to victory. However, in order to keep our school clean and neat, we have set the following guidelines for our student section.
No paint is allowed in the stadium or in parking lots.
No powder or cornmeal can be thrown.
Confetti may only be used if students clean up with a blower immediately following the game.
Throw away all the trash before you leave.
Sporting Event Dresscode Guidelines
At our TCS Sporting Events, we request that our students do not wear low cut or cropped tops, shorts should be a minimum of fingertip length, leggings can be worn with shirts having lengths that follows the fingertip rule. Shirts must be worn at all times for all of our indoor athletic events- painted bodies will be permitted, when painted in full, during our outdoor athletic events. Please be sure that our cheering is a positive representation of Trinity Christian School. There should be no derogatory cheering towards the other teams.

D-Groups
Jn.17:3, “Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” In light of God’s clear teaching, September marks the time each year that we add another component to center our high school students on the reign of God. We are initiating 18 diverse, teacher-led, and completely voluntary Discipleship Groups promoted through our Bible department. There is something for every age, personality, and gender. The groups meet at various times, days, and locations on the HS campus.
Please be in prayer for the work God will do through these small ministry communities.
Chapel
Satan’s greatest weapon is seen on every high school campus across America, even Christian high schools like TCS. He doesn’t need to make us bad as long as he can keep us busy. He doesn’t need to move teenagers to cry out against God if he can crowd out God.
The Bible department is making a clarion call to our young men and women in our series called “Can I have your attention, please?” Our 4th Year Teacher Mr. Paschal brought the word this week from Matthew 13. He inspired students to seek the Lord in the calm. He encouraged students that God is not in a Tug-O-War in the cosmos but is the victor in all things. He warned of the distractions that can cause us to "have ears but not hear" and the things we allow into our lives that may cause us to "have eyes but not see." He finished with the final exaltation of the Lord that "Jesus makes a calling a faith opportunity." Thank you Mr. Paschal.
Be in prayer for the next week as KC Lorow further develops our series.
