The
World Awaits – 2019 Talent Show
Friday,
March 15, 2019 is the date for our annual talent showcase. The show is held
from 12:30 – 2:00 on the Friday before Spring break. Consistent with the school
year theme THE WORLD AWAITS performers were encouraged (but not required) to
leverage content about the world/travel/destination. Acts could consist of
individuals, groups or solo acts (music, song, dance, magic, performance or
artistic expression). Students must have signed permission slips to participate
(and sponsors are responsible for appropriate material). A sign-up sheet was
available months in advance in the staff mailroom and the front office. It
included some acceptable music choices (suggestions). Wes Morgan, talent show impresario
was on hand for this his fourth year of being point man for this annual
happening.
