Our family originally chose Trinity for their known academic curriculum and Christian learning environment. We have been very pleased with both, but have also watched our daughter grow in more ways than we could have imagined. While flourishing in all core subjects, she has also learned how to do research and present that research to her teachers and peers (in only 2nd grade). She has learned how to extend a helping hand to her community by participating in service projects the school participates in as a whole. She has been encouraged each day to be responsible, honest, and hard working- all qualities we teach in our home and qualities valued in the real world. The staff at Trinity has come alongside us, as parents, and invested time into helping create not only intelligent children but also children of upstanding character. Joining the Trinity family was one of the best decisions we have made for our child.

Overall I was very unhappy with Nazareth Academy. The teachers were not allowed to deviate from a set curriculum, to better help or challenge students that were ahead. Often resulting in many bored students. Many times during the year PE was withheld from students as a punishment, which I find unacceptable. Safety was a concern due to the allowing of anyone to join the kids during church services and walk into the school without checking in at the office. Doors were often unlocked.Inappropriate behavior towards another student was ignored by principal, even with multiple meetings about the subject. High turnover rate of teachers, and other staff as well were reasons for concern. School activities like church and campus gatherings were scheduled to start before or at school start time.
