| In 1968, a small group of parents met together to share their common
dreams and desires for a new school in Dallas that would better meet
the needs of their children. They were committed to building a school
where their children could receive a challenging curriculum within a
framework of traditional Christian values.
In 1970, their
dreams became a reality as Trinity opened its doors to eighty students
in grades nine through twelve and its first graduating class of one
senior. Due to the tremendous interest in the school, Trinity quickly
outgrew its rented church facility and looked for a new campus
location.
Much to everyone’s surprise, in January 1976,
Trinity moved to a location far outside the city, the Town of Addison,
which at that time, only had a few houses, no water or sewage hook-ups,
and plenty of sorghum fields.
As the Town of Addison, Dallas,
and surrounding suburbs grew, so did Trinity Christian Academy. Those
pioneering families and their children who so selflessly gave of their
time, talent, and resources are astounded today to see how the school
has grown and developed these past three decades.
Today,
Trinity Christian Academy is one of the largest single-campus, K-12
schools in the country serving over 1,500 students on a debt-free, 40+
acre campus. The school is fully accredited, K-12, by the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools. One hundred percent of Trinity’s
graduates attend colleges and universities, including the nation’s most
prestigious institutions. Our families attend over 137 different
churches in the metroplex, representing fourteen different
denominations and religious groups. They come to our school from 27
different cities in the Dallas metroplex.
