The 7th Annual Talent Show at Leighton Elementary was held recently, and included 40 students, performing 25 acts, and all with a diverse range of talents, according to Jenn Symborski, Leighton School Literacy Specialist and Talent Show Coordinator.
Students in grades 4-6 participated in the event, and performed in a variety of acts that included singers, dancers, acro dancers, daring devil sticks, and even synchronized swimming.
Sydny Frantz captured first place for singing "Call Me Maybe"; second place winners were Ryan Bartlett, Sophia Brosch, Megan Cheeley, Kyle Familo, and Hunter Mills for their synchronized swimming; and third place was Riley Petit for her dancing to the song "Unstoppable".
According to Symborski, the event included a canned food collection that will be donated to the Human Concerns Center, and the students wanted to share a special thanks to Lighthouse Lanes for donating the grand prize of a bowling party for five people.
