Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week is May 2-6. Show all your teachers and the staff at Trace Crossings Elementary how much you appreciate all they do for you with notes, treats, flowers or something for their classroom. And to make things even easier, you can check our teacher list for suggestions of favorite snacks, flowers, and their classroom wish list.

Snacks for Team Trace

Please sign up to drop off snacks for the Trace Crossings Elementary staff to fuel them through the end of the year! Donations can be handed off during morning carpool on Tuesday April 20th and Wednesday April 21st.

TCES has around 130 staff members and shaping our students’ futures makes them HUNGRY! If you are asking yourself “am I buying too much” the answer is “probably not”. We appreciate you helping make sure the Trace Crossings Elementary teachers and staff members are well taken care of!
