A student at Steinbach Regional Secondary School in Steinbach, Manitoba, set a new school record on March 17, 2026, by reciting 365 decimal places of pi. Ezra Lepp reached the new milestone during the school’s annual math competition.
The Pi Recitation Contest is a major part of the school’s Grade Wars event. This annual program allows students to participate in different challenges to earn points for their specific grade levels.
According to the Hanover School Division, the record-setting performance highlights the academic spirit at the facility. As the largest high school in the province, the school hosts several student-led initiatives and competitive events throughout the year.
The math record was officially confirmed and shared on the school website this week. The competition remains a popular tradition for students looking to showcase their memory skills while supporting their teams in the grade-level standings.
