SmART Bowl is a quiz-bowl style fundraiser raises money that we use towards field trips, staff training, artists in residence, school community events, and so much more.
Students are given 20 grade specific questions to study, and pledge sheets to collect pledges or straight donations. The students earn the pledges by showing off their study skills and answering the questions correctly on SmART Bowl Quiz Day.
Our students are encouraged to study over the four weeks leading up to quiz day and to make it fun we ask that they try to outwit an adult with one of their questions. If they can stump a grown-up they are entered into a drawing for a SmARTy award.
