'Loco Parentis'

Loco Parentis - “In Place of the Parents”

At Trinity Classical Academy we recognize and respect the fact that parents, not the school, ultimately have the Biblically mandated  authority over the education of their children. 

  • At all levels, the Trinity Classical Academy Board, administration, teachers, and staff acknowledge that the school does not function above the parental authority, but rather with delegated authority (in 'loco parentis') of the parents.

  • The Trinity Classical Academy goals and vision statement represent the desired results, which we believe, come from our educational support and Godly homes.  We intend to fulfill these established goals through supporting parents who are already dedicated to such goals in their respective households.

  • The school’s implementation of our goals and vision statement is not intended to supplant the responsibility of parents before God for the nurture and education of their children.

  • The school will seek to fulfill the obligation we have with regard to this policy, and both our goals and vision statement, primarily through careful admission procedures, faithfulness to our stated educational mission, and Biblical discipline.
