Pi Day - Parent Message

Hi Friends! 

I've attempted to send out a Messenger to your families this evening, but the system is having issues and has cut off my text BOTH times... aargh.

Please let your parents know that we'll be having a Pi Day celebration on March 13 and show them this blurb:

Dear Parents and Guardians,   

On Friday, March 13 our Gr.8 classes will be celebrating Pi Day! 
  
Typically, the event is held on March 14 (3.14...) but because this year it falls on a weekend, we are going to acknowledge it on the Friday.  

Students will participate in a variety of mathematical activities, take part in a lightning round recitation of Pi, and hopefully, eat some actual pie at the end of the day 🙂   

We are wondering if anyone would be willing to donate a pie to their child's homeroom, as we would be looking for about 8 full-sized pies per class.   

Please let your child's homeroom teacher know if you are able to provide a pie, so that we do not end up with too many. Also, due to a number of dietary restrictions, we would be looking for dairy free and gluten free pie options as well.  

Best Regards, 
Grade 8 Team
Twelve Mile Coulee School
