Harbor School talent showcase, by Nathan Weiser

Following the ribbon cutting for the new footbridge, the Harbor School held an after school spectacular showcase in their auditorium. All of the after school clubs put on an exciting live performance for parents and teachers.

There was a “Blue Carpet” set up approaching the auditorium that the kids walked down as they entered. At the entrance there were snacks and raffle tickets available for purchase.

The fourth, fifth and sixth grade harbor news crew hosted the showcase and introduced each performance. The event started off with another ribbon cutting by Alexa Aviles since this was the first production in the new auditorium after it had been closed for a few years.

Some of the money for the renovation came from the Councilmember.

The first two performances were the upper grade hip hop dance team and the lower grade jazz dance team.

The third performance was the fifth and sixth grade Tae-kwon-do group that received instructions from their instructor. The martial arts and harbor clubs then had video presentations.

The Theater Clubs then did an improv performance responding to teacher prompts. One was about being in Puerto Rico and the other about being in Texas.

At intermission everyone had a chance to get raffle tickets. The winners took home an Amazon toy basket, a movie basket, a lotto basket and Harbor School gear.

After the break there was a performance from the upper grade Jazz Team and then lower grade Hip Hop. That was followed by a video presentation from the third and fourth grade Content Creators club.

There were two more upper and lower grade dance performances (both Afro beat), which was followed by a final dance performance that included all the grades.

The last after-school club on stage was a video presentation from the photography club. The concession stand treats came from the sixth grade cooking club.

A descent into the maelstrom     There is a short story written in 1841 by Edgar Allen Poe called “A Descent into the Maelstrom.” It tells the tale of a mariner at sea caught in a giant whirlpool.
