WCS students are given the opportunity of sharing their
talents with peers and parents at an early age. Talent Shows are one important
way this is done.
In Lower School, students usually have Talent Shows by grade
level in the black box theater in March before spring break. Talents range from
skits and joke telling to accomplished musicians, vocalist, gymnasts, and
dancers. This venue is where we begin to see the budding artists who will very
likely become the stars on the stage in the Upper School.
Middle School students also have a long history of talent
sharing. The most recent version of Middle School Talent Shows happens on the
Friday morning of the All-School Picnic. Students gather in the U.S. Galichia
Auditorium to share their talents. Again, the range of talents is broad, and
the skills displayed can be exceptionally high.
Upper School Talent Shows have taken many forms through the
years, being called The Connection and
most recently, Show Stoppers. In the
years when there was a fall and spring musical, the U.S. Talent Show was usually
in January. When having just a fall musical, it would be held in the spring.
These shows truly showcase the amazing talents that students have honed through
years of opportunities to perform in the comfortable settings of their school.
