A new educational celebration is coming to our Junior and Senior High School on March 14. This is Pi Day, a math holiday from the numbers of Pi, 3.14. Hosting this math fair are math teachers Allison Pargeon, Andy Erselius and Mark Thomsen.
Each student in math classes grades 7 through 12 will be required to do a project for the math fair. The project topics will be due on Feb. 1 to be approved.
The projects require a display which will be at least 3 feet in height and maximum of 3 feet wide and with at least one page written summary of the project.
Students will be given one day in class the week before the fair to present their projects. Community will be invited to come that evening to see the students’ projects which will be judged that night and given a I, II, or III rating.
At 3:14 p.m. there will be a Pi run/walk of 3.14 miles. This will be open to the students and the community. Also, there will be a pie-baking contest, Pi reciting contest and more activities for the entire community to participate in.
