Spring Valley Middle School

My son has been attending Trinity Christian School in Spring Valley, CA since kindergarten, and it truly feels like home! The teachers are amazing; caring, dedicated, and committed to nurturing not only academic growth but also faith and character. He has grown so much spiritually, socially, and academically, and it’s clear that every child is valued and encouraged to walk in God’s purpose.The sense of community at Trinity is incredible. Parents, students, and staff work together to create a supportive, Christ-centered environment where children feel safe, loved, and inspired to thrive. Trinity Christian School is more than a school; it’s a place where faith and learning come together, and where families truly feel welcomed. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a school that nurtures the whole child in God’s love.

Bottom Line Up Front: The principal, Ms. Klant, and her entire middle school staff are simply amazing. We are very grateful our kids were able to experience this school before going to high school, and we highly recommend every Catholic family in the area meet with them before sending their kids anywhere else.Background:Our family has two kids one grade apart. Both kids attended a Reggio Emilia preschool before attending a nearby Catholic school where they attended from Kindergarten through 3rd and 4th grade, respectively.We chose to avoid the chaos of the pandemic and homeschooled for three years through Seton Catholic Homeschool. Towards the end of the first homeschool year, both kids admitted to learning more about their Catholic faith from Seton Homeschool than from their initial Catholic school. This came as a surprise; however, both our kids are good listeners, and well-behaved students, so we trust their feedback.This year both kids decided they would prefer to go back to school and we decided to consider additional options. We sat down as a family with the principal, Ms. Klant, and her middle school teachers and we unanimously agreed to send both kids for their 7th and 8th grade school year. This was the best decision we could have made. Before attending Santa Sophia Academy (SSA) both kids were uncertain about where they stood academically compared to their peers. Now they are both excelling in their studies and are excited to learn and grow. As parents, we can not thank Ms. Klant and her entire staff for their genuine care and support of our children during this pivotal time in their educational journey.
