Pi in the Sky
Pi in the Sky magazine is primarily aimed at high-school students and teachers, with the main goal of providing a cultural context/landscape for mathematics. It has a natural extension to junior high school students and undergraduates, and articles may also put curriculum topics in a different perspective.

Submission of Articles:
Pi in the Sky accepts submissions by e-mail at pims@math.uvic.ca, on any subject related to mathematics and its applications, including articles, problems, cartoons, statements, and jokes. We also welcome Letters to the Editor from teachers, students, parents, and anyone interested in Mathematics Education (be sure to include your full name, phone number, and email address).
Articles should, by preference, be written in the LaTeX typesetting system and the submission should include both the uncompiled LaTeX file as well as the compiled PDF version. For prospective authors without access to LaTeX, articles submitted in Microsoft Word format will also be accepted.
Acceptance of submissions is subject to a refereeing process: submissions are sent to referees who are asked to assess the material for interest, presentation, and suitability for the target audience.
