Trent was founded in 1997 by educators interested in establishing a non-demoninational homeschooling institution based on the following principles:

• Honoring our students' individuality.
• Helping our students find and develop their unique learning styles.
• Ensuring every student is successful.

In our current education system, students are expected to compete against one another regardless of varying ambitions and abilities. We believe the best education is one that is tailored to the individual student. Homeschooling makes this kind of growth in learning possible, harnessing a student's unique abilities, dreams, and interests. Trent prides itself on providing personalized attention and encouragement for all its students.

Trent's wonderful staff, with over 65 years of experience in education, has an ongoing commitment to these founding principles.
