Narrative:

I departed my home airport and was practicing landings at two different nearby airports. The day before I was endorsed to fly solo at these two airports. The winds were from 200 at 8 knots. The sky was clear and +10 visibility. Altimeter 30.01 temp/dew point 13/M3. There were two aircraft waiting to depart runway 30. I selected runway 17 with a 30 degree crosswind. I overflew the airport and entered on 45 left downwind for runway 17. The pattern took me over the lake. On final approach; I was too high and decided to go around. On the next attempt; I was lower but had to drop more altitude on final approach. I was carrying extra airspeed and floated down the runway. When the aircraft touched down I did not retract the flaps immediately so I had little braking. The tires skidded and I was unable to stop before crossing the runway end. The propeller tip struck an end marker and the right main gear cover was dented by the marker. After the propeller strike; I taxied to the tees and called my instructor. I left the aircraft parked there.the propeller was inspected the next day and pictures were sent to the mechanic. The nick in the propeller was dressed in the field as authorized by the mechanic and the aircraft was ferried back. Because the traffic pattern goes over the lake; I believe that I tended to stay too high and was too high on final approach. At this point; I should have gone around and landed on another runway with an 80 degree crosswind or opted to return to my home airport. I should have realized that this runway was beyond my skill level.since this; I have flown again with my instructor with emphasis on short field landings. After more practice I will return to this outlying field with my instructor and land multiple times on runway 17.

Title: A C-172 student pilot landing at an outlying field misjudged his altitude; landed long in a crosswind and overran the runway's where the propeller struck an end marker. After a propeller dressing the aircraft was flown to the home airport.
