Arlen Shelly is surrounded by supportive friends after winning the Gattis Has Talent, talent show

Gattis hosted its 2026 Talent Show on April 10. Nine bold, talented students showcased their skills in front of their parents, classmates, and teachers. Arlen Shelly was voted as the talent show winner by audience members and won a $50 Visa gift card! He sang "The Girl From Ipanema" by Frank Sinatra.

Other acts included Grayson Boerio, Urijah Sarracino, and Gabrielle Supulbeda, who performed a drum cadence; Avery Cordova and Zavien Acosta, who sang a duet, "Die With a Smile", and two solos, "Salvatore" and "The Song That Nature Sings"; and Juan Chavez, Liam Cross, Leon Cooper, and Arlen Shelly, who sang "More Than Words" while Juan also played the guitar. 

This was a fun-filled event with smiles and laughter from everyone in the room. We are so grateful for the family members, friends, and staff who came to support these students as they expressed themselves beyond the classroom. Gattis is so proud of these kiddos!
