Trinity Academy students are actively discipled and encouraged to grow as Christ-followers in truth, faith, and character. The GROW model focuses on the goals or outcomes for each student:

G – Growing in godliness – “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” (Galatians 2:20)

R – Growing in relational skills and as responsible individuals – “And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.” (Hebrews 10:24)

O – Growing in opportunities to serve others – “Even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Matthew 20:28)

W – Growing in wisdom – “Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding.” (Proverbs 3:13)
