These are a tradition at LASA and as with many things at LASA, this is a pay-it-forward act!

You can find our current offerings for all classes and buy your tickets in the PFLASA Store: https://pflasa.org/product-category/greatgatherings/.

What does “Paying it Forward” mean?

by Newsletter Comment Closed

In PFLASA, we believe in supporting each other across all grade levels. This is why we use the Pay It Forward model:

  • Each year, the Freshmen, Sophomore, and Junior families work together to help fund that year’s graduating class Project Graduation event. (This is an all night lock-in party to keep our senior kids safe)
  • When it’s your student’s turn to graduate, the younger classes will do the same for you.

This approach makes our traditions possible and ensures every class has the support they need for a memorable senior year.

Think of it as a circle:

  • Freshmen, Sophomores & Juniors→ support today’s seniors.
  • Seniors (and families) → get to celebrate!

When you attend a Great Gathering or bid in our online Auction, you’re helping us make our safe and fun event for Seniors possible!

By participating now, you’re making sure that when it’s your child’s turn, the community is ready to celebrate them. That’s the power of Paying It Forward.
