About Trinity Christian School

Trinity Christian School serves 169 students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in Texarkana, Arkansas. Despite its name suggesting a private institution, this is actually a regular public school that maintains an impressive 9.6:1 student-teacher ratio with 18 full-time equivalent teachers, allowing for personalized attention in smaller classroom settings. The school has earned a solid 8.3 out of 10 rating from MySchoolScout, though it ranks 62nd among Arkansas's 89 schools, placing it in the 32nd percentile statewide.

This suggests the school is performing respectably while having room for continued academic growth and development.

The surrounding area of ZIP code 71854 has a population of 36,148 residents, with 16% holding bachelor's degrees or higher.

While the community faces economic challenges with a poverty rate of 21.9%, the school's small size and low student-teacher ratio position it well to provide individualized support to help students succeed. The school operates in Texarkana's small suburban setting, offering students a close-knit educational environment within Miller County's border community.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 169 students, Trinity Christian School is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

With a student-teacher ratio of 9.6:1, Trinity Christian School offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

As a private school, Trinity Christian School operates independently from the local public school district. Families considering this school should inquire about tuition costs, financial aid availability, and the admissions process. Private schools are not required to follow the same curriculum standards as public schools, which can be either an advantage or a consideration depending on your priorities.
