Pi Day 2014!

Pi Day takes place annually on 3/14. (The first three digits of Pi!) In the 6th grade, Clusters have traditionally celebrated Pi Day as part of the Mathematics Curriculum.

This year we are excited to also celebrate "Pre-Pi Day" during 7th grade lunch on Thursday, March 13th, and Pi Day during 8th grade lunch on Friday, March 14th. Costumes and thematic lunches are encouraged! (Yes, you may bring your lunch. We'll have trash cans and time for clean-up.)

All are invited to celebrate after dismissal until 3pm on Friday!

Get in the mood with some Pi Videos!

Sign up below to reserve space/time to share your Pi-creativity (and get on the lunch list)
Thanks to the Math Department for their continued partnership and contagious excitement about celebrating Math year-round!
