Why we sell pizza...

Many of you have wondered why we sell pizza! The pizza sales are our main fundraiser.

Our students benefit from the money we raise from pizza sales.

The money raised pays for:

  • The 5th Grade Music Festival
  • 2 free Skate Parties
  • Buy digital cameras for the teachers
  • Buy music stands for the 5th and 6th grade orchestras
  • pay for the Summer Strings trip to Adventureland
  • Bryant Park Quartet Residency
  • Buy/repair instruments for the Instrument Rental Program
