Congratulations to Soren Stickney for correctly answering this week’s Library Question of the Week by knowing that Pi is an irrational number. Soren, stop by the library for your prize!
Are you curious about what some people in our WMS community will be celebrating this week? This evening begins the Muslim holiday of Eid al Fitr and Friday is the Persian New Year called Nowruz. Eid is the end of the month-long fasting of Ramadan. Muslims celebrate Eid by going to a mosque for prayer, spending time with friends and family, exchanging gifts and feasting. Nowruz, or Persian New Year, is an ancient festival celebrating the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. The celebrations last for 13 days, and it’s an opportunity to reflect on the past and set intentions for the future. We wish all people at WMS observing Eid, “Eid Mubarak” and and we wish all people at WMS celebrating Nowruz, “Happy New Year!”
The meeting for 8th graders interested in the WMS Tennis Team this spring is today after school in Room 321 with Mr. Crowe.
