Step into the wonderfully whimsical world of Roald Dahl as Matilda discovers the power of standing up for what’s right, finding your voice, and believing that even the smallest person can make a big difference.

HS One Act - Congratulations Cast & Crew!!
A huge shout out to the cast and crew of our High School One Act, GODSPELL! Students recently performed both at Trinity for our families, and then at the Region tournament this past weekend. They wowed each crowd with excellence and a profound message of Jesus Christ! The rich Biblical interpretations challenged us all to consider a relationship with the Lord. What a blessing that we can freely proclaim these truths here at TCS!

INSTRUMENT REPAIR
We use Big Note Music for on site repair of many of our musical instruments. If you have an instrument that needs repair, this may be a great option for you. The process works with you filling out an online form, pre-paying for the repair, and then they come for a scheduled repair session right on our Trinity campus. Your student wouldn’t be away from their instrument except when it’s on the repair table. This convenient option has worked for us for a few years now. Simply fill out the online form and let us know that a repair has been scheduled.
