Spring Fest is a big event at Alamo Heights Junior School. It was created by the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) to provide a fun and exciting event for students. Spring Fest is the biggest fundraiser for the PTO and helps raise funds for the school’s daily operations and supplies, supporting what the staff and teachers need.

At Spring Fest, there are lots of mechanical games, along with a variety of foods such as snow cones, nachos, burgers, and many more, making it a great time for everyone. It’s a fun way for students and families to enjoy spring together.

Spring Fest is held in the middle of the field, where the track is located. All the fun activities are set up there, and the road features dunk tanks. Spring Fest happens every year on the last Friday of March, or sometimes the third Friday of March.

Before Spring Fest, the PTO tried something new for the 8th graders. They gave them food like Chick-fil-A or Cane’s to eat. Afterward, they handed out popsicles (Mexican paletas) to the 8th graders.

Spring Fest is a big event that involves the whole campus, including staff and parents. It’s always held from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. At Spring Fest, they sell wristbands and tickets. The wristbands are only for the games, while the tickets can be used for both games and food.
