As the construction begins and the temporary classrooms are installed, we will let you know what the volunteer need will be. What a tremendous spirit of community has been evoked by this devastation! Trace teachers and students have been embraced by people and organizations that stretch far beyond the beautiful Rose Garden neighborhood community.
