Public School Foundation 5K The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Public School Foundation held its annual 5K for Education on March 9, which, despite the rainy weather, saw more than 2,200 registrants and 1,200 participants from all Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. The event also included a 1K fun run, which allowed younger students to join the fun. About $10,000 of the funds raised went directly to the schools, while additional money raised will support teacher awards, classroom grants and the annual Teacher Supply Store.
