    On December 11th, starting at 6:30 p.m. the first ever West High Faculty Talent Show will take place in the Robert A. Bains auditorium. Admission is $5 per person. Many of the faculty members will be showing off their talent to the school. Right now there are about 11 acts and during intermission there will be a bake sale. Acts include singing, dancing, and other amazing performances.
    "Teachers are always asking students to put themselves out there. This is teachers finally putting themselves out there," said Ms. Joy, explaining why the faculty talent is taking place, "I think it is amazing that the teachers are putting themselves out there." All of the teachers say that they are very excited for the talent show, and hope to see everyone there.
   Mrs. Balch, Mr. Motika, Munchkin Melodies and the  Weststreet Dance crew will be performing. Come by to see these amazing performances and witness the event of your life. "Be gentle, and remember we are doing this for you guys because we care about you," said Ms. Joy. You won't want to miss it!


   Mrs. Passanissi and Ms. Joy performed two acts together. One act of friendship, and another while dancing to "All About that Bass". Ms. Dubois twirled her baton. The Munchkin Melodies did a little skit with their hands and feet. Mr. Yusef sang his heart out to "All I Want For Christmas", but that isn't the only thing people noticed. People also noticed his green t-shirt and santa boxers! Mrs. Balch awed the crowd with a self-written poem. Ms. Joy and Ms. Mahone told their stories about break ups. Mrs. Francoeur played the piano and sang two songs, one in memory of her Dad, and one for the spirit of West. The Weststreet Dance Crew rocked the show by dancing to Uptown Funk, The Whip, and Gangnam Style. The West Side Story group danced with masks on, while making fun of some of the staff. And lastly, Mr. Moktika played with an old buddy of his. The crowd loved them. The crowd even got Mr. Motika to sing!!

The Faculty Talent Show was a great experience. It brought teachers and students together. Great job to all of the performers. With the success with this years first ever Faculty Talent Show, there is bound to be another!

Great job to everyone!
