Next for these young performers: their own professional clip.
A group of High Junior Parks won the inaugural battle for groups from the Fullerton School District of the Fullerton district on Wednesday April 9, which means that they will be able to record their own clip and also share a price of $ 500.
The battle held in front of an OC source audience included five teams. The group of the dance category was the group of Nicolas Junior High and for the votes category was Fisler School.
School officials said the K-POP event was another way to connect with the growing Korean community of the district.
The money price was provided by non-profit children Fish, for whom the Superintendent Bob Partka is a member of the board of directors, and all the students participating will be able to go to Disneyland, said a district spokesperson.
