"The talent show was a win-win-win, it would not only raise money to help kids in the pandemic, but also it would give the kids of Lincoln an outlet to showcase their talents in a time when so many activities have been shut down, and moreover, it would give people of Lincoln and nearby communities a place to connect in a time of isolation," Gandhi said in an email

The students are planning a second talent show on Feb. 12 to raise more money for Save the Children, Trosteanetchi and Gandhi said.

The first talent was conducted virtually, with students playing instruments, showing off horse riding skills and performing puppet shows online. You can watch each show on YouTube:
