Spring Fling is our ONLY fundraiser specifically for our elementary schools. Every dollar raised goes directly to Beach, Havens and Wildwood to help fund programs vital to our schools. This is our chance to fund items that are important to elementary families. In past years, funds from Spring Fling have supported our music and art programs, purchased chromebooks and classroom technology, and even bought back furlough days.

Hosting a gala with a sit-down dinner, open bar, DJ and entertainment is expensive. The ticket price covers the cost of the evening. To give you an idea of event costs:

• The Spring Fling Gala in 2019 (our last big event) was $250 per person.
• The 2023 PHS Senior Prom is $200 per person.
• The 2023 PMS 8th Grade Boat Dance is $200 per person.

Your ticket to the Gala includes a cocktail hour, sit-down dinner, open bar and entertainment for the evening. It is a super fun night full of surprises!

Yes! When you purchase tickets online, you can enter your friends names. We try very hard to accommodate all requests.

Our biggest community builder, each year, parents plan and host smaller themed parties. These parties may be for adults, kids, or the entire family. In past years, these have included the 5th Grade Luau, movie nights, and block parties. Signing up for a party is another great way to get involved and support Spring Fling.

Kindergarten and 5th Grade are extra special years for our students. We capture the first year of elementary school and the last in our Comings & Goings Photography project. A professional photographer comes into the classroom to taking a beautiful headshot of our students that are shared digitally and can be printed for framing.
