Hartshorn Elementary Hosts 'H Factor' Variety Show

The 80 acts included soloists, duets and groups of singers, dancers, gymnasts, musicians, Bollywood acts, magicians and even Jedis.

Hartshorn Elementary School was super excited to host its first ever variety show, "The H Factor" on Thursday, March 20, and Friday, March 21.  

After weeks of rehearsals, more than 200 talented students performed for a sold out show each night to friends, family and the community.  

The 80 different acts comprised of soloists, duets and groups of singers, dancers, gymnasts, musicians, Bollywood acts, magicians, and even Jedis. Kindergarteners through fifth graders shared the stage.  

Hartshorn Principal Kenneth Frattini was also featured in one of the acts.  

"The H-Factor was not only a way to celebrate the diversity of talents, hobbies and interests, it was also a way for us to honor and show respect for the diverse population of students and the differences we all have," he said. "We all came together as one school community, as one family, to support and encourage each other.  I am very proud of our students for taking part in the H-Factor, for the school community in supporting it, and I am grateful for the enormous amount of time and energy that our parents put into making it an incredible experience for all."

It was two nights of wondrous surprises. Hartshorn is extremely proud of all of their performers.
