At Camden Elementary, Dutch loves to rotate portions of his Pez Collection in the front hallway display case. On display right now is this awesome collection of Mini Pez he has, all the way from Japan! These are typical of the dispensers sold in the country at vending machines or in convenience stores, also referred to as Konbini.
You just might recognize a few characters here!

Last week, Mrs. Calabro's 8th grade math classes had a Pi Day celebration. Friday, March 14th is set aside to observe National Pi Day, a rational educational holiday based on an irrational number. (3.141596254..........)
The classes would like to thank WalMart in Rome for donating some pies for this special day, and because they were round.... students could use Pi to measure the dimensions of those pies!




Happy St. Patrick's Day from Camden Elementary School!

As a reminder, Friday is the deadline for interested firms.
