Trinity Presbyterian Church begins formal church school at 2 years of age. Children are grouped into classes by age and birth date and remain in the same classroom for the entire school year. There are often two classes for each age level.Our two- and three-year-old classes use a storybook based curriculum called "God Loves Me." Our four-year-old classes use the curriculum "Walk with Me" published by Faith Alive Resources (CRC, part of the Presbyterian Reformed tradition)

Our early school learners focus on Bible stories from a Reformed (Presbyterian) theological perspective using a curriculum called “Walk with Me.” The emphasis is on building Biblical literacy and growing in faith. Our pre-K and K children also participate in Mr. Music, enhancing their faith-development through song. Lessons are taught by volunteer teachers, and preschool rooms are supported by childcare staff.

3rd grade

3rd grade, Room D110

Acknowledging the growing minds and a developing faith of our middle elementary, the class engages in a more challenging study of the Bible. The curriculum is continuous from previous years with “Walk with Me” but also includes self-created materials for education about baptism and communication and supplemental curriculum on the Bible itself. The third-graders are part of the worship service on World Communion Sunday (October 4) and are presented Bibles on December 6. This class is lead by volunteer teachers.

ROAD is an acronym which stands for Riding on the Avenues of Discipleship and is a multiple intelligences approach to church school! These two grades are combined and then divided into three crews which rotate each week. Students learn about a single Bible story from three different perspectives and engage in in-depth study and conversation. Various learning methods for ROAD Trip include drama, art, movies, computers, cooking, and video production. Volunteers serve as both “crew leaders,” who rotate with each group of children, and teacher, who teach the lesson to all the crews.
