What is Race for Education?

Each year the whole school participates in a Race for Education event, which is our only direct ask fundraising event. It’s a lot of fun for the kids since prizes & parties are involved. We hope you’ll participate!

What’s the timeline?

Tuesday, September 26th  - Kick off assembly. Think of this like a good ‘ol pep rally! Students will come home with information about how to register and collect donations

In between those dates - Fundraising -  See details below on how to collect donations

Thursday, October 12th  - Race day! Students compete to run the most laps just for fun & enjoy pizza. Please come cheer them on.

What’s the goal?

Our goal is for each student to raise $250 so we can reach our school goal of $35,000. The funds raised will be used to:

Expand our educational subscriptions

Purchase new technology

Fund fun PTO-hosted events

+much more!

Who can donate?

Anyone! Students are encouraged to ask their extended family members, coaches, neighbors, tutors, etc. for a donation to support St. Louis.

How can we donate?

There are 2 ways to donate money.

1. Online via Greater Giving. To get started, each student needs to register and create his/her own fundraising page. Then he/she can share that personal page with friends & family members.

OR

2. Drop a check or cash in an envelope with the student’s name off with Lori Welty at the front desk.

Note: The number of laps a student runs on race day is not tied to the amount of donations they collect.
