The Freedom Public School annual talent show on May 9 showcased many talented students. The emcees, Samantha Greer and Nicole Hughes, kept the program running smoothly.
This year's show had 16 acts that included solos, duets and class skits. There were three age groups: pre-K – fourth grade, fifth – eighth grade, and 9 – 12th grade. First through third place received $20, $15 and $10 prizes respectively.
Each age division had at least one classroom skit. The third through fourth grade group did "Basketball versus Trolls," seventh grade performed "Greek Fountains" and 10th graders made up their own skit: "Expectations Versus Reality." The winner of the class presentations was the seventh-grade performance "The Greek Fountains."
