CRUASERS GOT TALENT GOES GLOBAL! During the 2025/2026 school year, we will enjoy two "episodes" of Crusaders Got Talent. The first will happen at 4:30pm on Thursday, October 16th...the night before Homecoming 2025! And, what is most exciting of all, we will be using this event to "qualify" three entrants to be part of an International Showcase in Spring 2026! On that spring date, three Crusaders will be featured in an online talent show that will include students from Kids Kingdom in Mexico, the City of Joy Christian School in Rwanda, and the International Academy of St. Petersburg in Russia! A global audience will be watching contestants from Christian schools on three continents!
Competition details.
