PTA Reflections
Attention Students: Do you have a talent in Film Production, Dance Choreography, Literature, Music, Photography, or Visual Arts? If so, then the Reflections Arts Program is just for you! The Reflections Arts Program has inspired millions of students to reflect on a specific theme and create original artwork based on that theme. Each year, students are recognized for bringing the theme to life!
We wanted to let you know that this year's theme for the 2024-2025 school year is "ACCEPTING IMPERFECTIONS." The deadline for entries to be submitted is January 10th, 2025. Every student who enters will receive an ice-cream treat at lunch. Classes that have 15 % or more entries will be entered to win a class pizza party for the most entries! Teachers who have 15% or more entries will also be entered to win a $20.00 Amazon gift card!
