Color Run

Patriot Days 2025 starts March 11th and is a school-wide celebration ending with our Patriot Fun Run and Color Run. York Prep’s main fundraiser of the year, family and friends support our school by collecting run pledges and then attend to cheer on their student. Last year, York Prep raised over $165,000.00 in pledges! This year, York Prep will be raising funds for upgrades to our safety communication, to our Student Union building, and to support student programs on campus. Families are welcome to come and cheer on their student at the Fun Run and Color Run!

A special thank you to our partners My Shower DoorFounders Credit Union,  Carolina Power WashingTop Flight Garage Floors, and Plato's Closet of Rock Hill for making this event possible!
