(MARCH 2023)—At Valley Stream UFSD Thirteen, students are encouraged to express their creativity inside and outside of the classroom. At James A. Dever Elementary School, the children and faculty displayed their abilities at Dever’s Got Talent, a spin-off of the famously known America’s Got Talent show.
“Students and faculty were encouraged to perform and show their talents in unique ways. From dancing to musical performances, including a glow-in-the-dark routine, our students and faculty demonstrated some very awesome performance skills. This was a fun and easy way that allowed the entire Dever family to bond over mutual interests outside the classroom setting,” said Darren Gruen, Principal of James A. Dever Elementary School. “Special thanks to the James A. Dever PTA for organizing this fantastic event that offered our students, faculty, and families a wholesome experience to be remembered!”
