Middle School Curriculum - Grades 6–8
Trinity’s Middle School is a vibrant season of academic, personal, and spiritual growth. As students transition from childhood to young adulthood, we guide them in developing essential habits—like disciplined study, organization, time management, and personal responsibility—while helping them discover how they learn best.
Our curriculum is grounded in a college-preparatory foundation framed by a biblical worldview. Students take seven classes daily, including core academic subjects and a wide array of enriching electives.
