Ventana Vista's first ever Talent Show is coming up! Save the date- the kids' big night is Friday, April 17th at 5:30! Help your student think of an act (can be on their own or with a group of friends) that they'd like to share on stage. Then, use the link below to sign your student up to perform. Auditions will be held on April 1st after school in the MPR. These auditions are for our Talent Show Committee to ensure school appropriateness of the acts; no one will be cut, we're excited to have all of the great acts our student body has to offer!
