Menu Change for 3-27
Due to the snow day in February, we will be having Shrimp Poppers
Mashed Potatoes and Banana on March 27th instead of pizza crunchers.
📏Our 7th grade math students discovered pi by measuring the circumference and diameter of different circular objects. Then they divided the circumference by the diameter and quickly noticed a pattern-the answer was around 3.14! It was a fun, hands-on way to see how math works in the real world! 🌎
Don't forget to celebrate pi day this Saturday (3/14). We'll be celebrating it a day early at the middle school with different activities and of course, lots of pie! 🥧
