The proceeds from this event will help fund Learner Grants for the enrichment of District 99 curriculum. Last year, the District 99 Education Foundation awarded $20,000 in grants to help support learning programs.
“Pizza Wars is a fun—and delicious--event, and we invite the entire community to attend,” says Eric Olson, president of the District 99 Education Foundation. “The proceeds from the night go to classroom grants for teachers, which directly support our students at North High and South High.”
