Wide Variety of Talents Displayed at Walter Reed Try-Outs

The middle school Talent Show is planned for Nov. 4.

After skipping it for a year, Walter Reed Middle School is going to have another Talent Show, and try-outs were Thursday afternoon just before Back-to-School Night.

About 50 students showed up to do everything from tapping a pencil on the stage to juggling. The sixth, seventh and eighth graders also did singing and dancing of all kind.

Also this year, teachers will be taking to the stage and showing their talents, but they don't have to audition.
