Sporting a "Forever Young" theme this year, the Glen Hills Talent Show drew crowds by the hundreds for two nights in a row this year, with more than 400 people attending between both nights.

"Last year we had to turn people away," said Principal Jay DeCristofaro as he welcomed the audience. "This year, we've opted to have the show for two nights. Our advisors and the students have all been working very hard these past few months."

There were two one-hour acts to the show, where students were able to show off their many talents, including dance, comedy, musical performances, martial arts and gymnastics. All of the students gathered together for the show's grand finale, taking their bows during a group performance of "Forever Young" by Rod Stewart.
