With dropping temperatures, please remember: NO students should be wearing hooded sweatshirts or shirts. Hoodie sweatshirts are also not allowed on Freestyle Fidays. We highly recommend purchasing the Trinity Lutheran Church and School fleece jacket from Uniform Outfitters, as this jacket can be worn everywhere on campus (except inside the chapel). Non-Trinity jackets are allowed - so long as they do NOT have hoods - however, they must be removed while inside the classrooms. Though our classrooms are warm, some students prefer to keep their jackets on and the TLCS fleece would be the correct option for those students. Thank you for understanding and adhering to our jacket dress code policy.

Thank you to our student, staff, and parent/family volleyball players. Thank you to everyone who came to watch and who helped organize. What a great event to kick off Homecoming weekend! We are truly blessed.

On Saturday, October 8th we held our Homecoming Dance. Thank you to our MS/HS staff, led by Mrs. Moratelli, for organizing and chaperoning this wonderful event. Thank you as well to Mrs. B, Ms. Shani, and of course our amazing PTP! (If you are interested in joining the PTP - Parent Teacher Partnership - please inquire in the office for the best way to get involved!)

Once a month students in grades 2-12 participate in Peace Circle. This is a time for fellowship, team building, and Christ-centered community building amongst students that is STUDENT-LED by our 11th grade Worship Class (with oversight by Mrs. Owens). Thank you to our staff and students for bringing Peace Circle back to Trinity!

- Shirts tucked in

- Black or white shoes with black or white socks

- Hair pulled back nice and neatly from the face

And to be fully well-dressed: BIG SMILES! Great job, 4th grade!

MS/HS continued some post-hurricane, fall cleaning around our grounds and gardens over the last two weeks. We love to see such community responsibility and helpful hearts. Great job, students (and Mrs. Moratelli)!

Do NOT:

1. Cut others in line without staff directives. If a staff has not specifically cleared you to go around another vehicle, do NOT. We are blessed to have a very short car line (10-15 minutes at most) and safety is top priority.

2. Be rude, use profanity, or threaten other drivers. Every driver in the car line is busy and has the common goal of picking up his/her child(ren). Be courteous to each other and to our staff who are doing their best to get your children safely to vehicles in a timely manner.

3. Drop tardy children off in the Welcome Center in the morning without signing them in. Children who arrive earlier than 8 am need to be signed into Before Care in the Life Center.

Thank you for your attention to these protocols and safety measures that are in place to ensure safety for EVERYONE'S children.

Varsity plays tonight. Do your best, ladies! Endless thanks to Coach Hammond for his commitment to our school sports teams and student athletes. Thank you to all students, staff, and families who attend our games. Your support means the world!

"Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything" (Gen. 9:3)

We may have Chapel only once a week, but we worship Our Lord at Trinity every day. Not only in daily religion classes, Peace Circles, and Worship class, but also in each of our interactions with friends, teachers, and quiet moments with ourselves. Students here have an opportunity each day to learn a deeper connection to Christ and experience what it actually looks like and feels like to be His follower. It is not just about memorizing verses or reading scripture (though those are two very important steps!) It is about FAITH IN ACTION. How do we APPLY what Christ calls us to do each day in our daily lives? We are so blessed to be in an environment that consistently supports loving our neighbors, repenting when we've done wrong, and granting grace and forgiveness.
