Happy Pi Day! Here are some facts ~
➕ Pi wasn't always known as pi. Before the 1700s, people referred to the number we know as pi as "the quantity which, when the diameter is multiplied by it, yields the circumference". The Welsh mathematician William Jones began using the symbol for pi in 1706.
➕ The number pi was so alluring, even in the 16th century, that Dutch-German mathematician Ludolph van Ceulen spent most of his life calculating the first 36 digits of pi.
➕ The number pi is literally infinitely long. But the number 123456 doesn't appear anywhere in the first million digits of pi!

We’re getting creative for this year's FFA Plant Sale (May Date TBA)! To keep our plant prices "dirt" cheap, we are upcycling everything. If it can hold soil, we want it!
We’re collecting:
Containers: Yogurt cups, cottage cheese tubs, Cool Whip containers, strawberry and tomato containers, and standard 2-inch cell packs, etc. Please wash all food containers before drop off.
The "Dirty" Stuff: Any extra potting soil or bags of dirt.
Seeds: Leftover packets of easy-growing annuals or veggies (marigolds, zinnias, tomatoes, etc.).
Help us turn your "trash" into garden treasures!
📍 Drop-off: Clayton High School⏰ When: During the school day until March 25th
Questions: Contact Sara Meyer and Emilie Springsteen
