Race for Education

St. Andrew’s students collect pledges for this hour-long Race for Education on May 25, 2022- a favorite annual event for our children and parents alike.  Students run around the 1/4 mile track as many times as they can over the span of an hour (half an hour for preschool).  All students receive a Ribbon.  Students who run the most laps receive a Certificate of Recognition.

Race Schedule:
Preschool: 9:00-9:30 am on the Sports Court

Kindergarten-3rd Grade: 10:00-11:00 am in the Parish Parking Lot

4th Grade-8th Grade: 1:20-2:20 pm in the Parish Parking Lot

Parents submit address labels for friends and family who would like to sponsor their child in the race. New families will receive a blank label sheet to neatly write addresses on in black ink.  Previous participants will receive a label sheet printed with addresses to revise or add additional addresses.  Addresses will not be used for any other purpose than the Race for Education.

Prizes:

Pizza Party with Father Wagner and Mrs. Baldwin for 2 families who garner the most sponsors.
