Uppers and some middles classrooms celebrated this very important mathematics holiday on Friday, March 14 with pie and other events related to roundness.  In Sarah's classroom, there was an Oreo eating contest, and a pi digit memorization contest - with the winner reciting 192 digits!  Thirty pies were ordered in advance and consumed by the uppers (Oreo was the favorite), and many more excellent homemade and pot luck contributions by students.  As thanks for spreading the positive message of mathematics, all staff was invited for pie at 3.1415926 or 3/14 1:59pm 26 seconds.
