Every grade at PLAS is invited to participate in the talent show.  Students may plan a one-person act or a group presentation. 
The focus for the show is on talent.  This will not be a competitive event; rather, it will be an opportunity for students to share their strengths. 
Some examples of appropriate activities are:  gymnastics, athletic routines/dance, magic acts, martial arts, stand-up comedy, singing, skits, or instrumental performances. 
The talent show will take place in the Cafetorium on Thursday, May 15, at 6:30 pm.  Admission is $5 and PLAS students will be $3. 
Forms are available in the front office.
If you have any questions please contact Natalie Lankford or Charlotte Walden.
