Charles City Middle School PTA held its first “pi” celebration on March 14 in the middle/high school library. The celebration was organized by the school’s math department in honor of the pi symbol and featured activities for students. Pi represents the circumference of a circle, equivalent to 3.14, hence the celebration on March 14 (3-14). Above, students (l to r) Tessa Young, Richard Fox, Tre’ Brown, and Lynnette Strother use cookies and rulers to find the circumference of the circle. Below, Charles City superintendent Janet Crawley (center) takes a taste test of pies along with director of special education Tina Smith (left) and PTA member Tammi Fox.
