As you know, typically pizza boxes cannot be recycled, because of all of the grease left behind, but more often than not I find that the lid is usually clear of any grease. So whenever we have a pizza day at our school, I started cutting the lids off and collecting the cardboard for art projects.
The lids can be good for the kids to paint on, use as a base for clay models, etc. So the next time you have pizza, cut the lid off before tossing the entire box in the trash.
If you are concerned there still might be some hidden grease, you could always paint a gesso base over top of the lid (the white paint that is painted on fresh artist canvases) and let it dry before handing it over to the kids to paint on.
