Spirit wear fundraising in Huntington Beach City School District
Spirit wear fundraising for PTOs across Huntington Beach City School District. Seven elementary schools, two middle schools, 20% of order value.
Huntington Beach City School District runs kindergarten through eighth grade in central Huntington Beach: seven elementary schools and two middle schools. It is one of three districts operating inside the city, alongside Ocean View to the north and Huntington Beach Union running the high schools.
Nine campuses in one district raises a question a PTO should settle early: whether to run a store per school or one across the district. Per school is almost always right, because families buy their own school's mark and a shared range would ask them to wear another school's name. There is no setup cost per store, so splitting them costs nothing.
The middle schools deserve their own treatment rather than being folded in with the elementary schools. An eighth grader will not wear what a first grader wears, and a range that tries to serve both ends up selling to neither. Two stores with two ranges outperform one compromise.

Where Huntington Beach City students go next
This matters for permission rather than for the store. A PTO here licenses its own school’s mark from Huntington Beach City; the high school district below licenses its schools’ marks separately, and approval does not carry in either direction.

What your PTO does, and what we do
The PTO confirms in writing that it may use the school name and logo, then sends colors and marks. After that the store is ours to run.
We build the store
Designed to your school’s standards, with a range you approve before anything goes live.
We print and ship each order
Produced after it is bought and shipped direct to that buyer. No bulk order, no size guess, no leftovers, no distribution day.
We run the campaigns
Text and email to your opted-in families, timed to the school year, spirit weeks and the December gift window.
We handle tax and reporting
Collected and remitted where we are the seller of record, with records your treasurer can reconcile.
Your PTO is paid
20% of total order value on a set schedule. A share of what the store sells, not a share of margin after costs.
Questions about Huntington Beach City
- One store for the district, or one per school?
- Per school. Families buy their own school's mark, and each campus has its own spirit week and community. There is no cost per store, so there is no saving in combining them.
- Should middle school gear differ from elementary?
- Yes, and noticeably. An eighth grader and a first grader will not wear the same thing, so a single range spanning both tends to sell poorly at both ends.
