We need your support for 2024-25.

Give the gift of time.

For over 20 years, Trace Elementary has proudly supported a magnet Visual and Performing arts program that continues through Hoover Middle and Lincoln Senior High. Due to changes at the district level in 2019, it became imperative to establish the VPA Boosters to continue the program as it is now and for future growth.

There is work to be done - volunteer today!
