THE GREAT PIZZA & HOT COCOA WAR – FINAL WEEK!

The battlefield is set… the stakes are high… the cheese is melty.

Scores so far:

• Elementary: $67.68 (slightly over-caffeinated but determined)
• Middle School: $47.76 (strategically plotting with math skills)
• High School: $20 (the underdogs, fueled by hope and leftover lunchables)

Only ONE WEEK left! Who will rise victorious and claim the ultimate prize: ALL THE PIZZA & A HOT COCOA BAR

Rumor has it the 7th graders have recruited a secret weapon: extra cheese. Will Elementary’s stealth tactics win the day? Can High School pull a last-minute comeback using advanced eye-roll strategy?

Remember: even in the heat of battle, it’s for a good cause… because nothing says “holiday spirit” like donating AND devouring pizza.

Choose your side… the war is real.

The collected money goes to the food bank as a donation!
