About Seaside School

100% of the race profits benefit the Seaside School, a tuition-free, local neighborhood school serving 5th-8th grade students who not only live along Highway 30A, but also across Walton County.  Your support helps reduce class size, and provides students an opportunity for creative, elective classes like gardening, music, arts, as well an award winning robotics program, advanced placement classes, and career- readiness industry certification courses.

Run + Give Back

The Seaside Neighborhood School and our surrounding community was spared from any major damage as a result of Hurricane Michael. However, 2 neighboring charter schools to the east suffered significant damage from the storm. With this in mind, the Seaside School Half Marathon & 5K will also be raising funds to benefit these Bay County schools. When you register for the Seaside School Half Marathon & 5K, $1 from each registration will be allocated to support University Academy and Chautauqua Learn & Serve Charter School in their recovery efforts. If you are unable to participate in the Race, but still want to make an impact, you can do that by clicking here and making an online donation.
