FRONT ROYAL – Sergeant Career Counselor Michael Pizzuto, a Sergeant in the U.S. Army goes above and beyond when it comes to working with the high school students in the area. He can often be seen in the halls of both Warren County high schools , as well as high schools in surrounding counties.
In fact, because of the friendships he has formed with area students, Pizzuto has signed up for the 11th Annual Edward Jones Race for Education.
The event, which supports two programs for Warren County high school students, will be held Saturday, March 10.
Half of the proceeds go to the First Dollar Scholarship, which helps students who want to dual enroll in college or workforce development classes.
