Get Involved
Founded by Cathedral students (and now proud alumni) in 2014, Hoops From The Heart has become a beloved tradition at the Spring Fair. Students and their families will secure pledges from friends, loved ones, and their community and strive to make as many free throws as possible before the buzzer sounds. Not into basketball? Not a problem. Students are welcome to Jump Rope and Hula Hoop From The Heart as well!

Run for Fun is an annual event where Cathedral students, as well as their pre-school-aged siblings, race in recreational sprints. Every participant will receive a ribbon, and the top three finishers in every grade-specific heat will receive a commemorative medal.
To register a child, purchase a “Run for Fun Registration” in the Spring Fair Store: here. The entry fee entitles students to a race number, as well as a participation ribbon.
All Lower School registrants MUST be accompanied by an adult.
Note: After School classes will take place on Friday, May 8, despite the concurrent Run for Fun. It is the parent’s choice whether to send your child late or to skip the class.
Please send an email to After School coordinator Monika Jasinska (mjasinska@cathedralnyc.org) if your child will miss some/all of the Friday After School.
