Fifth graders hosted a talent showcase afterschool on Thursday, full of song, instruments, and supportive cheers for each other. The event was MCed by fifth grader Samantha Brooks and fifth grade mom Margot Hoernner. Student performers included guitarists Francisco Blanco and Noah Ratzman, pianist Will Hocine, and vocalists Quinn Frankiewicz and Nora Paxson. Ms. Smith and upper school jugglers made a surprise visit too to share their juggling prowess. Students had also gathered to share talents over the summer before school started, and plan on future talent showcases to see each other and share passions outside the classroom.
