We're 4 DAYS out from our 2026 APA Elementary Walk-A-thon!

Where is the Walk-A-Thon?
Our cadets will walk rain or shine on Thursday, September 3, 2026. If it's nice outside, we will walk laps at Jackson Park. If it's not-so-great outside, we will walk inside our gym during specials classes. It will be a great day to raise some money for great causes!

We can't wait to see what our community can do!

Want to donate for APA Elementary's Walk-A-Thon but don’t know where to start? Maybe going to the Indianapolis Zoo was something YOU still remember about elementary school. How about sponsoring the mileage to the zoo?! 44.0 miles from APA Elementary to the Indianapolis Zoo. $44 sounds like a great start. Want to do mileage there and back? 88.0 miles, $88! Want to sponsor a specific trip or maybe donate in honor of someone? Let us know! We'd love to make that happen for you. Big experiences start with small steps. Walk with us. Help lead us down the path to nurturing inquisitive minds. Those 44 miles to the Indy Zoo opens a world of possibilities to a child who would have never thought that studying their favorite animal could become a full-time job. They then spend the 44 miles back to school dreaming about how to become a marine biologist. We walk on September 3! Looking to donate online?
