On March 18, AVID and Puetne had their very first talent show on campus in the auditorium, and the place buzzed with excitement and anxiety alike. The show started after the first period, and it continued on before it ended in fourth.

In the event, there were many performances that celebrated AVID and Puente’s pride, and the audience amplified that festive vibe with their engaging cheers. It was a rare occurrence, where no matter who you were, you joined in with a smile and sang along. It was a sight that would be a memorable one for both performer and audience.

The performances were a mix of heartfelt poetry, singing, dancing groups, and people showing off their skills on their instruments. Each one was celebratory and lively. Even when the person on stage was shaking in their boots, the courage the performers illustrated was remarkable. All things considered, the event was a fun one to be in and hopefully we have another one in the years to come.

Our school’s Black History Month assembly included various performances that represented the culture and history of African Americans. There were several performances: an elegant dance, a hip-hop performance created by black students, where they expressed pride in their identity, and a singing performance that honored their culture. There were also some skits and presentations showcasing the different hairstyles black people wear, and why certain words shouldn’t be used by people outside of the community. In addition to that, the stories of important black historical figures and their lasting impact on this world were also told. Overall, this assembly helped remind and teach fellow students about the importance of respect, culture, and identity, of black people.
