Trinity Lutheran School (TLS) is a private Lutheran school in Bend, Oregon, United States. It is owned and operated by Trinity Lutheran Church of the Missouri Synod[1]. TLS serves approximately 300 students from pre-kindergarten through high school.

History

Trinity opened in 1959, offering only kindergarten. In 1994 the school moved from the church property at the base of Pilot Butte onto a 23-acre (93,000 m²) parcel on Butler Market Road. The new school building allowed TLS to add grades through grade eight. After completion of a new gymnasium, the church also moved to the property. A donation of modular class buildings allowed TLS to open a high school in 2006. Trinity Lutheran High School graduated its first class in 2012.

Leadership

Trinity's principal is Hanne Krause. Mrs. Krause was the principal of Lutheran High, San Diego, CA for eight years before moving to Bend.
