It is Talent show time! Greentree’s Talent show will be during the day on May 21st at 8:30am for K-3rd grade and 1:00pm for 5th & 4th. Auditions will be submitted through a google drive upload. It will need to be submitted by May 11th at 11:59pm. This will give me enough time to review them. If your child is interested in participating, please work with him or her to ensure that the guidelines are met. I am delighted that children want to perform and I want to be able to give them the opportunity. Please help them assess their talents and choose a way in which they can best shine. Students will be notified by May 15th if they are chosen to participate in the Talent Show.
