BC Race To Educate - #BCRTEvirtual
The BC Race to Educate is a family friendly 5K Run/Walk and Kids Fun Run to benefit Saint Columbkille Partnership School. Started 11 years ago by the Boston College Hockey Team, the race is Saint Columbkille's biggest and only fundraiser. Typically, the race takes place in BC's Alumni Stadium. This year, we've reengineered the race to be held virtually to ensure safe social distancing.
Our 2021 fundraising goal is to raise $150,000. The BC Race to Educate funds our scholarship program that ensures we are able to offer a high-quality Catholic education to students of all backgrounds and means. Learn more at www.bcracetoeducate.com.

In 2018, Saint Columbkille Partnership School was designated as a laboratory school of Boston College's Lynch School of Education and Human Development.
Saint Cols now serves more than 400 students with more than 42 percent receiving financial aid. The BC Race to Educate is our annual fundraiser to support Saint Columbkille Partnership School to give all students access to a high-quality Catholic education.
