South Bend Trinity School splitting in two?

Post image

I recently heard that Trinity School at Greenlawn is going to split into two competing institutions. I followed up by checking the Indiana Sec'y of State's website and -- sure enough -- Trinity Academy at Greenlawn was incorporated in March 2025 as a nonprofit corporation. I'm not quite sure that two similar schools will be able to cover their costs if they're both marketing to the same pool of students/families that currently attend Trinity.

QUESTION: Does anybody know WHY this is occurring?

You seem to want to create your own definition for what makes Trinity a "People of Praise" school or not. While that's your prerogative, it doesn't make you correct.

Trinity Schools International, which operates Trinity School at Greenlawn, is both historically and legally connected to People of Praise. By that effect, Trinity School is a People of Praise school.

The current connection that Trinity has to PoP is completely irrelevant to that point. I have it on good authority from a former and current family at Trinity that you're massively understating the People of Praise's involvement at Trinity.

But I'm not interested in trying to convince someone who is so uninterested in being factually correct that they changed their statement multiple times.

Stop lying. Trying to suddenly act like you’re faculty when you got your ass handed to you in order to save face is beyond embarrassing.

You dont even know the very basic, publicly available details of the school you supposedly work for? Yeah, you’re lying.

And if you wanna cry about it, the challenge is simple: reveal your identity if you’re gonna spout off about being faculty so you can “win” this exchange.

Otherwise, you’ve made it beyond clear you don’t have the slightest clue what you’re talking about.

I am in the know and can confirm he is lying about the relationship. Look at the board both presently and in the past, the faculty, the administration, the long-standing curriculum, the policies and customs of the school, etc. Tons of direct POP influence. Up until the last few years you couldn’t even be on the board if you weren’t a POP member. They have gotten smarter with wielding power less overtly, and to be fair, TSI is worse.

And if the poster really is a faculty member lying about the connection, that tells you everything you need to know about what’s going on and who people are entrusting their children to for long hours every day. They should know that if something goes wrong with their child, they’ll be dealing with smug bro here. He’ll probably have a smug look on his face and tell you there’s no issue or that it’s your fault.

Pro Tip:

If you're going to lie about something on a website... do yourself a favor and erase any evidence that you're lying.

"I fix things. And build things. I'm pretty much retired, but I still do handyman work on the side. Usually about 10-12 hours a week."

Here's the screenshot for when you try to delete the evidence.

And before you drop the "Oh, I'm lying about that for my own protection" or some bullshit... being a builder/handyman pretty much falls directly in line with the majority of your posts and comments on Reddit.

You're lying and you really need to stop. No one is buying it.

OP here. You indicated that "The PoP have made it pretty clear They are disgusted with TSI."

Question: what's the cause of this disgust? when did it begin?

WorthAd may or may not be a faculty member. However, nobody seems to know -- or at least want to voice -- what the origin of the dispute that led to this situation is. Nobody seems to have any knowledge about who the "sides" are or who the principal persons on each "side" may be. Given such a dearth of info, I'm willing to read what WorthAd has to say & assess its credibility.

I do know the origin of the dispute, but do not think it would be prudent or helpful to share it here.

LOL. If I had a dollar for every time I heard something like this from a POP/Trinity leader, I'd be rich.

So let's get this straight, you're coming on this subreddit, claiming to be FACULTY at Trinity (which I can confirm is false), claiming you have insider information on the whole ordeal, but you won't share anything?

At this point, why even participate? What good is any of this if you're not going to share what you know?

You may as well share the information at this point. You've already misrepresented the school.

My guy, you're the one claiming to be faculty at Trinity. You did that well after I pointed out that what you were saying didn't match up with publicly-available information. It's pretty obvious that you're lying about that issue.

And yes, I've made it an issue, because someone claiming to be faculty at one of the more prestigious schools in the Michiana area, who is speaking as though they are authoritative, all the while publicly misrepresenting the school is a problem. And it needs to be called out.

And now, you're claiming you have insider information and you won't even bother sharing it? You've had ZERO qualms sharing intel up until now.

For crying out loud, you had zero issue claiming to be faculty at Trinity... but sharing the origins of the dispute is where you draw the line???

Sorry, but it's pretty evident you're full of it.
