Parent Presentation and Talent Show

Buon giorno, it's counselor Kelly. Today was amazing!!! Thank you to all of the parents, relatives and friends for coming out to support the students tonight!

But the fun didn't stop there! After the parent presentation the students participated in a talent show put on by the counselors. The acts ranged from singing solos to comedy skits to card tricks. The big surprise came at the end when the counselors put on a surprise skit and dance!

Wait! That's not all! How can you pack in breakfast, an art workshop, creative expression, lunch, a music workshop, a dance workshop, dinner, pictures, a parent performance, a talent show and another suprise event all in one day? Arts-x-press magic! Our last day conlcuded with a dance party!!! Slide to the left, slide to the right, take it back now y'all.

See you at the bus stop tomorrow and remember to ask your student about their magic moment.
