Fun Run 2026: A Record-Breaking Year for Our Students

With full hearts and deep gratitude, we are celebrating an incredible milestone: over $44,000 raised through this year’s Fun Run.

This achievement reflects the generosity, enthusiasm, and shared commitment of the Providence community. Every gift, every share, and every act of encouragement has helped move us closer to something lasting, meaningful improvements to our permanent campus playground and outdoor play spaces.

A Community Effort

This year, participation across our Grammar campus was truly remarkable.

• 196 students registered and received at least one donation
• Over 600 individual donations were made

These numbers tell a bigger story. Students stepped up, families engaged, and our community came together in support of our school.

A New Tradition: The Color Run

This year brings an exciting new chapter, our first-ever Color Run, taking place on Thursday, April 30 from 2:00 to 3:30 PM at the Grammar campus.

Families and community members are invited to come cheer on our students as they participate in a joyful, high-energy celebration of all they have accomplished.

Because we exceeded our fundraising goal, every student will receive an extra color blast during the event, making it an even more memorable experience.
