Sewickley Academy

The Sewickley Academy proudly serves as the Finish Medal Sponsor of the Sewickley Classic 5K & Festival. Founded in 1838, Sewickley Academy is the oldest independent school in western Pennsylvania and a nationally recognized, coeducational college-preparatory school serving students from Pre-K through Grade 12.

Located just minutes from the race course, the Academy has long been a cornerstone of the Sewickley community—fostering intellectual curiosity, character, and a lifelong love of learning among its students. With small classes, innovative faculty, and a vibrant campus dedicated to academics, athletics, and the arts, Sewickley Academy prepares students to think independently, collaborate with others, and contribute positively to the world around them.

As the Finish Medal Sponsor, Sewickley Academy helps ensure that every runner—whether tackling the 5K or the 1-Mile—crosses the finish line with a medal that celebrates the spirit of achievement, perseverance, and community. It’s a fitting partnership with an institution whose motto centers on friendship, honor, and achievement, values that mirror the spirit of race day.
