South Shades Crest Elementary School

Trace Crossings Elementary has been such an amazing experience for our family. The diversity of the school is something we truly value. Kids are surrounded by classmates from all kinds of backgrounds, & that creates an environment where everyone feels welcome and included. The teachers are amazing. They clearly care about their students & go the extra mile to help each child succeed, both in the classroom and beyond. It is obvious they put a lot of heart into what they do, & it shows in the way the kids feel supported and encouraged every day. The administration is just as strong. They are approachable, responsive, & genuinely invested in making the school a great place for students, families, & staff. You can tell they work hard to build a positive, supportive culture. The PTO also deserves a lot of credit. They put in so much time and effort to support the school, and it makes a difference. We are so thankful for TCES & can’t imagine a better place for our kids to attend school.

DVES was great. My kid just graduated out. Nothing but good things about all the teachers he had and the Principal is super communicative .

This school is incredible at every level. They offer a safe, welcoming community with parents who are always willing to go the extra mile and children who get to witness how service creates a thriving learning environment. They are grounded in faith and virtue and it shows in everything they do. This is a very tight-knit community but they are always welcoming to new members. I’ve fallen in love with POP church and school for my kids and for me, too!
