October 27, 2011 - On Thursday October 27th, 2011, Aiea held its talent search auditions in the gym beginning at 1:15 afterschool. Many students came out to audition with a variety of different talents such as singing, dancing, and performing. With this unique array of people, the gym during this period was filled with a couple of hours of the best talents in the school. The judges would have a hard time making a decision on the 6-7 groups that would make the cut, but all who participated were proud in the fact that they did their best, and had the courage to try out no matter the result.
