Tryouts for talent show held in EMS Auditorium

Eighth graders Mackenzie Shamblin, Cayley Hardison, and Kenya Schmidt are entertaining the judges with their rendition of "Boondocks" as tryouts are being held at this moment for the first East Middle School Talent Show.

The show, which had been an annual event at South Middle School, is combined with the presentation of academic awards.

The tryouts began shortly after school ended and appear destined to last another hour.
