SANTA MARIA — Santa Maria High School students and faculty will take entertainment to new heights during the Saints Virtual Talent Show at 4 p.m. April 30.
The submission period for two-to-three minute videos began today and wraps up April 15. The videos can be uploaded at www.BIT.LY/TALENTSMHS and the names/ student identification should be directed to mgoldin@smjuhsd.org
“Many of our students have numerous talents and do not have the chance to showcase them,” said teachers and drama club advisors Glenn and Merrie Goldin. “Giving our students a place, even though it is now on Zoom, helps our Saints discover what they are good at, and supports them in working on what they need to develop.’’
The event, which is organized by the school’s Drama club students, will feature magicians, singers, dancers and much more.
“It’s important to be in clubs right now to feel a sense of involvement even when we’re not physically in school,’’ said student Malory Ramirez.
Students Vanessa Zayes and Coline Cruz (club treasurer) agreed, adding “the club is a place to express yourself, show your hidden talents and where we can be ourselves.’’
ASB President and club member Janeryi Antonio summed it up: “the club is a place where we can socialize with other friends and have fun.’’
Normally, the show is held inside the historic Ethel Pope Auditorium in front of a large school and community audience.
