Happy Pi Day! Whittier teachers and staff enjoyed a piece of pie 🥧 in celebration of Pi day! .

Pi Day is a celebration of the mathematical constant π (pi), which is approximately equal to 3.14159. It’s observed on March 14th (3/14) because the first three digits of pi are 3.14. People often celebrate Pi Day by eating pie and participating in math-related activities. It’s a fun way to appreciate the beauty of mathematics! 🥧🎉.
