• There are only three weeks left in Quarter 3. Quarter 3 ends on April 11th. Students are bringing home Progress Reports tomorrow that should be signed and brought back on ASAP. If students are in the INC range then they are on track to earning a D/C on their report card. If students are in the D range then they are on track to earning a C/B on their report card. If students are in the C range then they are on track for earning a B/A on their report card. Please note that “on track” does not guarantee those grades on their report cards, they must continue working at the same rate they have been working at since the start of the quarter. Also, an “A” is in reach for all students if they put in the work before Quarter 3 ends. A more detailed report of all the projects assigned and completed can always be found on Engrade.
• Ms. Curry will be staying after school on Thursday (3/20), Wednesday (3/26), and Thursday (4/10) until 4:30 to give any extra time students may need on their projects before Quarter 3 ends.
• As part of the Wine and Dine Gala fundraiser, photographers will be taking pictures of OTA students.  The pictures will be available to purchase on Grandparent’s Day (April 25) and at the Wine and Dine Gala (April 26). There is FREE DRESS DAY on picture day which takes place this Friday (3/21).
• Order forms for our class poetry books went home yesterday. Please sign and return the order forms by Thursday even if you do not want to purchase the book.
• THANK YOU!

Pi Day is an annual celebration commemorating the mathematical constant π. Pi Day is observed on March 14, since 3, 1, and 4 are the three most significant digits of π in the decimal form. Read more about Pi Day here.

Today students measured the circumference and diameter of circular objects in the classroom to find pi. We also enjoyed some pie at lunch!
