Pizazz: Annual Fundraiser
Saturday May 16 | 6 - 11 p.m.
Pizazz is the Northwest School’s signature community fundraiser in support of financial aid and student access.
Each spring, parents, alumni, grandparents, faculty, and friends come together as one Northwest community to celebrate the school that we love. Pizazz is an evening of connection, generosity, and shared purpose.
Together, we support financial aid through an elegant dinner, conversation, and auction to help ensure that a Northwest School education remains accessible to students from a wide range of backgrounds.
Save the Date: Pizazz is on Saturday, May 16, 2026.
Why it Matters
Financial aid is central to the Northwest School's mission. Every year, we provide significant financial aid to ensure that students from diverse backgrounds can attend, regardless of their family’s socioeconomic status.
This commitment to a diverse student community strengthens the classroom experience and helps create the vibrant learning environment that defines Northwest. For decades, Northwest families and friends have come together through Pizazz to celebrate the school and support its mission.
Your support makes this possible and ensures that current and future students can fully participate in the life of the school.
