Secret #1– As you may recall from our earlier story, Trinity Lutheran School in Berrien Springs is among the fastest growing Lutheran schools in the entire state of Michigan.
Seriously. Over the past four years, Trinity Lutheran School at Berrien Springs has added 30 students in grades Kindergarten through 8th Grade. Remember, this stellar growth comes at a time when many Lutheran schools are downsizing or closing their doors permanently.
Principal Mike Shembarger believes this growth has a lot to do with the quality of education their students receive. He proudly tells us, “Our smaller class sizes mean that kids get more teacher-time. More one-on-one instruction. More customized training from the teaching staff, every day.”
He’s not just boasting, either. The facts are borne out in test scores, and are especially noteworthy when Trinity Lutheran kids advance to their High School education. They often place near the top of their class, and are typically better-equipped to learn advanced level subject matter. The staff of highly qualified, and frequently veteran, instructors have formed a unique and talented team of educators for Trinity.
Keep in mind, too, that beyond the quality of education, most families choose Trinity in Berrien Springs due to the Christian values the school is renowned for. Based on a solid Christian foundation, students at Trinity Lutheran not only learn about God, and memorize Bible verses, they are taught the fundamental principles of living a life that is pleasing to God. Those same families, seeking more traditional values — things like prayer in school…Chapel Services…and Bible learning — have found a caring, nurturing community of like-minded families at Trinity in Berrien Springs.
Remember Secret #2? Trinity Lutheran School at Berrien Springs is affordable.
When compared with other private education opportunities in Michigan, Trinity has among the lowest tuition rates in the region. Plus, there are discounts for multiple children from the same household. There are affordable monthly payment plan options. There are even need-based scholarship opportunities to assist where needed. And on that very subject of affordability, Trinity now offers qualified families FREE Pre-School!
And Secret #3: At Trinity Lutheran School in Berrien Springs, you don’t have to be Lutheran.
In fact, you don’t have to be from any church at all. Reality is that over the course of the years, many people have assumed that you will be required to join Trinity Lutheran Church in Berrien Springs. Sometimes people just automatically assumed that to gain entry to the school, they must be recommended by a church. In neither case is that true. Trinity Lutheran School welcomes students and families from any denomination, or — for that matter — from no denomination at all. The same criteria applies to Trinity’s Pre-School!
While it’s not really a secret, you might also be surprised to learn that Trinity Lutheran School students come from nearly everywhere in the county including Berrien Springs (naturally), but also from Stevensville, Eau Claire, Sodus, Baroda, Berrien Center, Niles, Buchanan, even from as far as Benton Harbor.
