Join the Stafford Education Foundation (SEF) for a morning of movement, community, and advocacy! As part of Mental Health Awareness Month on Saturday, May 1, 2027, we are lacing up our sneakers to prioritize the well-being of our students, educators, and families.
All students participate for FREE.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner aiming for a personal best or a family looking for a meaningful Saturday morning stroll, this event is for you. Every step taken and every dollar raised goes directly toward funding mental health resources, classroom grants, and wellness initiatives within Stafford County Public Schools.
