Happy Pi Day from Mrs. Whipple's middle school math classes! Students brought in and shared different kinds of pies to celebrate today, on 3/14. Pi or π, is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Since Pi is actually a decimal with no end, and no repeating pattern, it is often approximated with the decimal 3.14. #PiDay #MathIsFun
