Our goal

For more than a decade, the St. Croix Prep Marathon has been one of our school’s most cherished traditions, bringing together more than 1,200 students in grades K-12, along with families, faculty, staff, and community supporters. This exciting event celebrates wellness, teamwork, school spirit, and the strong sense of community that makes St. Croix Preparatory Academy such a special place.

Our goal for the Marathon is $250,000

This year, proceeds from the Marathon will continue to directly support our students and teachers by helping provide:

Chromebooks

to replace aging devices and those reaching the end of their lease, ensuring students have reliable, up-to-date technology to support their daily learning.

Updated Social Studies Curriculum

that equips students with engaging, high-quality instructional resources that strengthen learning across grade levels.

Supportive Intervention Programs

that provide targeted academic support to help students build skills, gain confidence, and reach their potential.

Enhanced Student Programming

including the Youth Frontiers Courage Retreat for middle school students, which builds character, resilience, and positive relationships.

Your investment and participation supports more than a beloved school tradition - it helps provide the resources our students and teachers need to succeed while strengthening the community we all share.

Together, we can make the 2026 St. Croix Prep Marathon our most impactful yet.
