Mr. Pillow's classes experienced a memorable pi day. Students made a pi chain (not all 100 trillion digits of pi that have been computed so far) AND put a pie in Mr. Pillow's face. EACH STUDENT PUT A PIE IN HIS FACE! MORE THAN 100 PIES!

Fun times with Mrs. Pharis and Mrs. Wilcox.
7th grade students finished reading The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. Students worked so hard on their projects they earned a "Soc vs. Greaser" dress-up day while they compared the movie to the book. STAY GOLD! (IYKYK) 💙❤️📚
