Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3.14) around the world.
In celebration of Pi day, 5th/6th grade students made a paper chain using different colors to represent the first few digits of pi. They learned about the idea of what the never-ending decimal looks like.

The 3rd and 4th graders went on a field trip to the Ventura County Museum and the Buena Ventura Mission.

Our boys are so proud of their cup towers.

Our theme of the week was letter L, so we made lemonade. We tried it, and it was sour!
