150th Anniversary

Trinity Lutheran School was founded in 1869 with 12 students.  The pastor of the church organized the school and became its first teacher.  Classes were held in the basement of the parsonage.  Once the new church was built, the school moved into the church basement.  In 1885, the school’s first permanent home (our yellow building) was erected.  In 1942, the school had grown to over 120 students.  Trinity started an expansion and remodeling project on the yellow building.  The new addition was dedicated in June 1943.  A kindergarten class was added in 1955.  Reverend Robert Ziegler became Pastor in 1969 and the TLS Endowment Fund was established at this time.  The preschool program began in 1974.  Groundbreaking for the education center was held in 1987 and the building was completed in 1988.
