The 11th Annual Heroes for Education 5K was nothing short of incredible — a sold-out event with more than 2,000 runners, walkers, volunteers, and cheerleaders coming together in support of Palm Beach County’s public schools!
This year’s event saw participation from 127 schools across the School District of Palm Beach County and raised $121,500 through registrations and sponsorships — all benefiting local students, teachers, and classrooms.
A record $15,000 in cash prizes was awarded to schools for team spirit, size, and speed, celebrating the enthusiasm and community pride that make this event so special.
