PI TIME – How many digits of pi do you know?

Bucyrus Elementary fifth-grade students celebrated Pi Day this year by memorizing as many numbers of the pi formula as they could.

Marissa Eulett memorized the first 151 digits to win the contest.

“The Pi Day contest was fun,” Eulett said. “I memorized the first 40 digits the first day, and then I tried to memorize 10 to 20 more digits every day after that.”

Natalie Stover finished second with 101 digits of pi, while Amber Zornes placed third with 75 digits of pi.

“We always try to find unique ways to celebrate Pi Day each year,” fifth grade math teacher Jackie Fruth said. “The students who participated in this year’s contest did a great job memorizing and reciting pi.”

“Our math teachers do a tremendous job developing new ways to celebrate Pi Day with our students,” Associate Principal Timothy Souder said. “We are very proud of the effort and time all the students committed to memorizing and reciting pi.”
