I have been at TCS for 5 years.
I love knowing the foundation of faith and academic excellence that is being built for each student. I love the mission and vision of the school and how that same mission has continued for 28 years.
My favorite Bible verse is Psalm 121:1
"My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth. Indeed, He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep, the sun will not harm you by day nor the moon by night. The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore,"
because it reminds me that apart from God I can do nothing. It also reveals so many of God's attributes and paints the picture of how near He is and how deeply He loves us!
This is my 6th year at TCS.
Favorite thing about working here: the environment! The hallways literally feel like they have a heartbeat- from smiling faces and genuine conversations to student work displays and Mr. Kraker’s singing. It’s a place you feel lifted and loved.
I love Ephesians 2:8,
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is a gift of God,"
because it shows how generous God's love truly is. We are undeserving and He wants nothing in return. He created us for himself and it's about Him, not us.
I've been at TCS for 4 years.
My favorite thing about teaching at TCS is that it is a second family away from home. The teachers, staff, parents, and students make Trinity the special place that it is.
My favorite Bible verse is Isaiah 43:2 because it has always served as a reminder that God is with me no matter what I am going through.
This is my 5th year at TCS.
My favorite thing is interacting with all the kids. I love helping the kindergartners in class, teaching kindergarten and first grade fun games to play in PE, and I love talking to the big kids at recess. So many of these kids have become so special to me over the years.
My favorite Bible verse is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18,
"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus,"

my favorite Bible verse is Isaiah 41:10,
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand,"
because it has been a bridge in my life from helplessness to healing so many times.
This is my first year at TCS!
My favorite thing about teaching at TCS has been the amazing staff (especially my teaching partner/mentor) who have come alongside me to encourage, uplift and guide me as I begin this new school year. I have felt so blessed from the very first day I set foot in the building and continue to feel blessed each day I am here.
My favorite verse is Psalm 121,
"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help..."
It's my favorite verse because it was a huge comfort to me and my family when we were going through a particular painful season of life.
This is my first year at TCS.
My favorite thing about teaching at Trinity is the spiritual leadership that is so evident in all the teachers and staff members. I can feel the love of the Lord and his presence so wonderfully here in the short time I have been here. I am grateful my own children will experience this too. I love being part of a Christian School that includes the LORD in all we do.
My favorite verse in the Bible is “Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, just as I promised Moses.” Joshua 1:3
That is my favorite verse because as I look at all the Lord has done in my life, I see his hand and his love over my life and loved ones. I am reminded that all we have is from the Lord. I thank him for all he is doing and all he is going to do wherever he sends us.
This is my 3rd year at TCS.
My favorite thing about working at TCS is the families. Whether student families or staff families, we all come together as one to support each other, pray for each other, and grow students to love Christ.
My favorite Bible verse is Mark 2:17,
"On hearing this, Jesus said to them, 'it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners,'" because it shows that Jesus cares about us even when we are messed up.
This is my first year at TCS!
My favorite thing about teaching at Trinity has been the very welcoming staff and everyone here loves Jesus which is awesome!
My favorite Bible verse is Philippians 4:13. If you read the verse in context of the passage, Paul is speaking about how through highs and lows he has learned to be content through every circumstance in life and that he is able to do that through Christ who strengthens him. God helps me feel content when things are unstable or seem perfect, because He is with me and gives me that contentment and peace. Verse 13 just reminds me that I cannot do this alone and don't have to.
This is my 5th year at TCS.
My favorite things about Trinity are that we get to share our faith in Jesus, and the amazing staff, students, and parents.
One of my favorite passages is Matthew 11:28-30,
"Come to me, all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
I love these verses because I am reminded that through Christ, I can have rest and be refreshed no matter what the circumstances are. I give my worries to Him, and He will take care of every situation.
This is my 6th year at TCS.
Teaching at TCS brings me great joy and one of my favorite parts is not only being able to pour into a student and invest in them academically, but also showing them that they are truly loved by their Savior. I love teaching math and watching students grow in their understanding and confidence, but ultimately love walking alongside them in their faith journey and encouraging them as they learn about Christ.
I love Colossians 3:23,
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."
This verse has always been a go-to of mine and one that I always share with my ribbon dancers. The " whatever you do" can be dance, teaching, leading others, and more. It is an encouragement and command to give glory to Christ in all you do.

My favorite Bible verse is Romans 8:28,
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose," because it's a promise for all believers that God will use everything (what we deem good or bad) for our good. I find that very comforting and it gives me assurance that I am able to trust my God no matter what happens.
This is my 11th year at TCS.
My favorite thing about teaching at Trinity is I love being able to share my faith, my love of music, and my love of reading with my students. I am also blessed to be able to teach most of them from the time they are 5 until they graduate 8th grade.

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
I like this verse because it reminds us what Christ has done for us by his work on the cross. Freedom from sin, free to love, serve and live the life he has always dreamed for us.
This is my first year at TCS.
My favorite thing about working at TCS is the beautiful combination of Kingdom-building and using our gifts to influence and inspire the next generation to use their gifts to build the Kingdom in their own unique ways.
My favorite Bible verse is John 11:35, "Jesus wept," because it's a reminder that Jesus isn't some distant deity; he's intimately familiar with the human experience and there's nowhere in life we can go that he hasn't been and nothing we could go through that he hasn't endured. It's the proof in action of his love for us.
I have been at TCS for 7 years.

My favorite Bible verse is Philippians 4:13,
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,"
