EW Celebrates Pi Day

Wednesday March 14 was Pi Day and Explorer West celebrated with a contest to see who could recite the most digits of Pi. Thirty students recited as many digits as they could in order to win a piece of apple, berry, or “surprise” pie. Three students broke the record this year. Sixth grader Bo recited 112 digits, seventh grader Tan recited 140 digits, and sixth grader Alisa won the contest by reciting 240 digits of Pi. The top three winners won a pizza pie to share at lunchtime.
