Art Gala & Talent Show

Talent Show
Auditions are underway for the talent show portion of our Art Gala. We have auditions taking place on Tuesday (singers) as well as some make up auditions taking place later in the week. Teachers will notify your children of these dates and times.
There will be a teacher Judging panel on Monday, March 11 after school. Mrs. Shinness will be releasing a list of those students who have made it through the first round of auditions to be eligible for this final panel audition. For those students elected by the panel, they will be responsible to prepare for a Dress Rehearsal which will be held during school on Wednesday, April 10. Students will need to be ready at this time if they would like to perform on the 11th.
