If you're looking for a place that cares about both a Christ-centered and academically rigorous education, there is no other place in Santa Clarita, or nearby areas, like Trinity that balances both as well as they do! We've been here for more than 7 years and have seen both the highs and lows of being a private school community like this. Even when challenges arise, the best thing I can say is that they actually care and try to respond in such a way that they remain committed to Christ (first and foremost) and also do the best they can to care for their students. Even if we don't always (personally) love or agree with every decision that has been made, I know it's always been done with much thought, care, and prayer in order to stay committed to the school's mission and vision--not bending to just one person's (or family's) thoughts or feelings about things. This, I'm sure, has been hard at times, but I'm grateful the school has stayed faithful in this regard over the years and even through many challenging situations! We are grateful for the unique place Trinity holds in the Santa Clarita Valley for our family! read more

My husband and I put our son in Trinity and it was the best decision we've made. Not only is this school absolutely beautiful, but they care for each and every single student that walks through that door AND their families. The attention to detail is impeccable. The love that you feel when you walk through the front doors is unexplainable. If it's something that you've thought about, even just for a second, I highly recommend to go to a Discover Trinity meeting. I would get in contact with Elizabeth Hosmann asap. You will want to become her best friend, I promise she's literally one of the best but she's also a wealth of knowledge and can answer any and all questions for you. read more

Trinity Classical Academy is an incredible blessing. We have four children at the school. They are all different and they have each had great experiences over many years. The leadership is intentional and available. There is such a clear and consistent vision. But the thing that stands out most is the teachers. Great hiring and many teachers have had long careers at this school. They care deeply the students and are experts who love the areas they teach. Conflict is part of life and the teachers and admin are for the good of each student. read more

Wonderful! Faith, academics, sports and parent fellowship is an all around blessing to our family!

A truly special school community! As both a parent and a teacher myself, I can say without hesitation that Trinity is something special. We chose Trinity for its strong academics, small class sizes, and faith-based foundation - and it has exceeded our expectations in every way. The teachers here are incredible. Mrs. Augar, Mrs. Whittry, and Mrs. Kelly have been warm, compassionate, and firm in all the best ways. They set clear expectations while making each child feel loved, seen, and supported. That balance of structure and kindness is not easy to find, and it has made such a difference in our daughter's growth--both academically and emotionally. Communication between home and school is another thing I truly appreciate. Teachers and staff keep parents informed daily, whether it's quick feedback at pickup or notes on homework sheets. I always know how my daughter is doing, both academically and socially, which lets us work together as a team for her success Most importantly, Trinity teaches from a foundation of faith. Knowing that my daughter is learning not only academics but also what it means to be Christ-like in her words, actions, and heart--alongside what we teach at home and in our church--means the world to us. Trinity is more than a school--it's a community that partners with families to nurture the whole child: academically, spiritually, and emotionally. We are so thankful to be part of it! read more

This is a great school with a Christ-centered community that provides challenging academics, a demanding standard for conduct, and amazing support for children with special education needs. For our family, Trinity Classical Academy has been a Godsend. read more

i attended trinity beginning rhetoric school for 2 years. they claim to be christians but will do ANYTHING but practice what they preach. they are always begging for donations but will never use it for anything important besides sports. it's almost to the point where this isn't even a school, it's more of just promoting the "trinity" brand that's equivalent to the walmart version of what they they think they are. if you don't fit the social standards at this school, you will suffer. they do not believe in any kind of diversity or artistic minds. students get away with treating their peers like crap because their parents are the ones funding the school. academics don't prepare you for the real world unless you expect your child to work for the pope in the vatican. don't take your children here, literally take them anywhere else unless you want to deal with the heavy tuition and constant micro-aggression for being slightly different from their peers. read more

POC students are not safe at this school period. Expect overtly racist comments, slurs and innumerable micro-aggressions from students, other parents, teachers, staff and administrators. The harm to sense of self is not worth any perceived academic gains. POC parents are not welcomed into the community. In our time here it was common to see POC students and families last a year or less. Expect a lot of white tears if you bring the racism problem to the administration and be clear that's all you will get. I can personally think of 15 POC families that came and went in our time at Trinity. Ask the admissions office for their contact information (or get a yearbook and look them up yourself) to learn first hand how they were treated at this "Christian" school. Imagine the guilt of paying money to have your child exposed to hurtful attitudes, "jokes", and behaviors. read more

Best school in Santa Clarita by far. So blessed my children and family are part of this amazing community. The curriculum is challenging, the teachers and staff are wonderful, the campus is safe. These are only a few positive attributes and there are so many more. The founder of the school, Mrs. Caddow, is one of the most amazing people I have ever met. Our family feels loved and supported. I know this school is preparing my kids for the future and setting them up for success, all the while keeping them based in our Christian faith. read more

This is an outstanding school. In our first year we have been extremely impressed with the leadership, develop of our kids faith, and the classical curriculum. Looking forward to all of our future years to come. read more

So they touted themselves about serving kids with special needs for summer camp. They supposedly had a special education specialist. They could not deal with my daughter who is not severe at all, and straight up gave up on her after one day of camp. My wife and I originally thought it was a good fit because they even asked for an IEP. At the end of the day, it was a joke. The only reason I don't give them one star was because there was one teacher there that seemed to legitimately want to work with my daughter. read more

Amazing School we love Trinity the best school ever all the teachers so nice this is the second year for my daughter and she loves the school read more

Please do extensive research before sending your child to this school. It's hard to know where to start on the problems you will encounter here. Nepotism rules - you will find out that teachers are related to admins, teachers are related to each other, admins are related to each other. Try discussing an issue about a teacher to an administrator that is the said teachers mom, mother-in-law or husband. Consequences for inappropriate behavior depended on who the student is related to. Ask the head of the school about her son's behavioral issues that would have had any other student expelled or arrested. Ask the dean of students why his son was expelled (only after being threatened with legal recourse) after years of inappropriate behavior including inappropriate sexual behavior. This school has reputation in Santa Clarita for a reason. Elitist attitudes are cultivated here. I have heard from numerous people that this school functions like a cult. As a parent who had multiple students here I completely agree. You definitely have to drink the kool aid to be accepted here. The diversity is nonexistent and they like it that way. Without exposure to different people - students, staff and parents are comfortable espousing ignorant, racist, and classist beliefs. Students are not prepared to deal with the real world outside of the "Trinity bubble." Ask why the vast majority of Alumni don't return and wouldn't send their kids there. Expect to see more negative reviews as many of us parents who have left have decided to help other families make a more informed decision. read more

Good school, has kind teachers, and provides a classical christian education. Mrs. Caddow is a loving person, she is truly like a mother to me. read more

My son started preschool this year! We have been met with love and enthusiasm I've never seen in a school. We applied to a few and decided this one was the perfect fit for our child! We look forward to spending the next 12 years with this wonderful family school environment! So grateful for Trinity !!! read more

if i could give a 0 i would i went to this school from 2nd grade-7th. i was bullied then all the teachers victim blamed and shamed. they do not believe in diversity or in artistic minds. this school will traumatize your child if they do not fit the social standard. read more

I paid the 35.00 fee for the financial aid application for my son and attempted to follow up many times on the status and never received any information following up on my application which is a shame because I was interested in this school for my son. I applied welllllll before the pandemic and they had plenty of time to reach out after I paid the 35.00 application fee. read more

Our son graduated last year from Trinity. He attended there from kindergarten on. I cannot say enough about this school. The staff truly cares about the students AND their parents. They are accessible and helpful. This is a Christian school--and they put Christ in everything they do. They teach the kids how to think, how to reason, and how to be articulate. They are not a "holy huddle"--ignoring beliefs and arguments contrary to Christianity. They embrace discussion and debate. My son is prepared for college because it won't be the first time he's presented with ideas contrary to Christianity. He knows what he believes and why he believes it. And he is humble-- he's not a "know it all" person which can be so offputting to those who are of other faiths or no faith. I'm grateful to Trinity for so much. They literally changed our lives forever. Trinity is a smaller school. It's rigorous. Its conservative. It will not be the right fit for everyone or every child. And that's ok. There are some other great schools out there. But in our experience, nothing compares to the education our son (and we!) received at Trinity. I read an earlier review of someone in a snit about how they didn't get a return call from the admissions director. I will warn you-- the staff are people. They are not perfect. So, if you need that, Trinity probably isn't the place for you. If grace isn't your thing--it might not be the place for you either. But if you are willing to dive in, help where you can, and understand that things, no matter how hard people work, can be good without being perfect-- then Trinity might be a good place for you. Oh- on another note--they do ask a decent amount of participation from the parents. This isn't a "write the tuition check and be done" kind of place. Sometimes we were a bit "unenthused" about needing to attend events and meetings. I admit it-- we would have rather been home in our pajamas sometimes. But we always understood why Trinity wanted parental participation. The kids work really hard and the parents need to understand the underlying ideas behind how hard the kids work. It keeps everyone inspired and aware. In all, we have loved being part of the Trinity family. I'm grateful it's not perfect-- we wouldn't belong there if it was (we'd mess it up!) but we've never seen anything like it. Trinity is in a class by itself. read more

I recently enrolled my daughter in their special needs program, Imago Dei, after having a horrible experience with my local highschool. The staff has made the transition so smooth. I have never worked with such an amazing group of people. I wish I had found out about this school sooner. I couldn't be happier--Thanks TrinityI feel very blessed to be a part of this program. read more

We were one of the founding families of Trinity and just became the first family to have a second generation attend the school - our granddaughter just started kindergarten! Our two older children attended other Christian schools. There is no comparison in the quality of education. The culture at Trinity is extraordinary. There is no greater gift you can give your child than a quality Christian education and whatever sacrifice you need to make is well worth it. As a contractor, my business has gone up and down over the years and often making tuition was a serious struggle and sacrifice but one we gladly made. read more

After reading the latest review I had to chime in, no one has all the answers to how to handle COVID but this school has gone above and beyond to be thoughtful and offer both remote and in person learning. With strong opinions on both sides it is nice to be somewhere where your childs learning is taken very seriously and the staff will bend over backwards to meet the needs of your child and your family. May we all be kind and understanding of both sides of the debate. read more

I'm still amazed that we found such an amazing school. Great teachers and founder is so amazing! We transferred in after relocating from Northern California. Great kids that come from great families. Looking forward to watching my kids graduate from this school. read more

We are at the start of our first year at Trinity and first time placing our child at a school, as I previously homeschooled. Even though we are in the thick of the transition period and there have been challenges, I have nothing but rave reviews about how the teacher has handled things! Mrs. Gray is kind and warm but also holds a high expectation for the class. I love that in the morning we almost always see the Head of School Mrs. Caddow greeting students and parents, even helping the kids get in and out of the cars during drop off and pick up! The grammar school principal Mr. Sikes is also out directing traffic and helping kids and saying good morning! They care about and know every child by name and what grade they are in. They ask regularly how things are going and genuinely care to help in any way possible! They try their best to handle situations in a Christian way. So far we really love Trinity, even with it's transition hardships. It's how we know we are all learning and growing! read more

We just Enrolled a week ago and we are so beyond happy we get to be a part of Trinity. The founder of the school liz Caddow has such an amazing heart for every student that attends. So far all the people that are on staff or helping out are so welcoming. Their is such a passion on the children's education. My favorite part is they offer elementary thru high school grades and that one of the foundations in their teachings is god centered. read more

Our daughter has been attending kindergarten at Trinity Classical Academy for the past 3 months and we are extremely elated and appreciative of the level of education and citizenship that she has gained. It is truly a special school and the entire staff is amazing. What is so great is how happy our daughter is at Trinity and she looks forward to school everyday. . In our minds no question the right decision for our daughter read more

Attempted to obtain more information about this school. I called the admissions director, Elizabeth, several times over a 4 week period. I finally received a call back and she left a message apologizing for not calling back but that at least she was calling me back now. When I returned her phone call again I was met with more silence. I reached out to her via email and nothing. Very disappointing and a horrible first impression. If they can't return a phone call it makes me nervous of how organized their program truly is. read more

Our family has had children at Trinity Classical Academy for over 10 years and I would describe it as nothing less than a privilege. I felt that I had to write this when I saw how low the Yelp rating was and just encourage those of you who are looking for a quality Christian education in an environment that will nurture your child's soul. Are we a perfect place - definitely not - and we are the first to admit it. But what I have been impressed with over the years is how our administration deals with problems that arise. They don't ignore things and hope they will go away, but instead deal with them early and appropriately. So while I see disgruntled competitors rant over bad behavior on the athletic field, I can unequivocally assure you those issues are addressed. From an education standpoint, I believe Trinity to be unparalleled. Not only are my children's teachers gifted at what they do, but they love my kids and care about their success. Come see Trinity for yourself, meet the people, sit in on classes, and definitely don't let a Yelp review decide for you! read more
