Trinity Academy is a distinctly Christian, college prep school with 325 high school students and the recent addition of a new K-8. Though the school has outstanding fine arts, athletics and academics, the school’s vision has always been far greater: to equip young leaders to impact the world for Christ.
Holy Cross School has a warm and loving Christian environment. We are the only school in Kansas with three accreditations (State of Kansas, AdvancEd, and National Lutheran School Accreditation). Holy Cross students are well-known for their high academic achievement and benefit from cutting-edge technology, a Christ-centered rigorous curriculum, small class sizes, comprehensive core class offerings, Spanish, P.E., religion, weekly chapel services, vocal music, band, art, library, electives for middle school, mission service opportunities, parent involvement, and experienced teachers.
Everything we do, from HappyFeet classes and birthday parties to Legends skill sessions and games, is designed to teach and encourage our players to take a risk, try a new skill—and when they do, we celebrate it as if that risk or attempted skill was in fact winning the game! It is our mission to build into our coaches, parents, and players the understanding that the process—practicing, attempting new skills, developing mental and physical coordination—is the win, not simply the means to a win.
So try one of our HappyFeet or Legends programs. Don’t come expecting white painted lines or even players standing in lines. Come expecting organized chaos on the field where your child will have a blast while getting hundreds of touches on a soccer ball. Expect a coach that knows how to teach and encourage your child to take a risk and try a new move or shot. And remember when your little soccer star takes that risk—that’s your cue to throw your hands in the air and celebrate like crazy!
Our dedicated coaching staff and low camper to coach ratios provide ample individual attention and instruction tailored to your child’s skill level. Campers build friendships and life-long memories as they improve their game through activities such as station-based swing instruction, on-course play with coaches, rules and etiquette lessons, fun games, trivia challenges and academic lessons including STEM. Multiple locations in the Greater Wichita Area.

We aim to graduate young men and women who think clearly and listen carefully with discernment and understanding; who reason persuasively and articulate precisely; who are capable of evaluating their entire range of experience in the light of the Scriptures; and who do so with eagerness in joyful submission to God… We desire that they have a heart for the lost and the courage to seek to dissuade those who are stumbling towards destruction; and that they distinguish real religion from religion in form only; and that they possess the former, knowing and loving the Lord Jesus Christ. All these we desire them to possess with humility and gratitude to God.
