Here for Reflections Entry Information and Application Packet
Every child has a voice through the arts, so tell your kids to let us know
what they're thinking by entering this year's Reflection Program. Have
your children create an original piece of art that incorporates/interprets this year's theme:
"Wow!..."
Students may enter in any
of the following categories: photography, visual arts, literature,
musical composition, dance choreography or film/video. Deadline
for entries is November 10th. More information will be available
soon.
The National PTA
Reflections Program is an arts recognition and achievement
program. Students in preschool through grade 12 participate in
the arts areas of literature, musical composition, dance choreography,
film/video, photography, and visual arts. Age divisions are preschool
through grade 2, grades 3-5, grades 6-8, and grades 9-12. The
Reflections Program provides a venue for students to create and be
recognized for original works of art based on a pre-selected theme,
while increasing community awareness on the importance of the arts in
education. For the last 37 years 10 million students have participated
in the program and it's longevity and participation figures attest to
its strength.
The goal of the
Reflections Program is for students to participate. Although the
program follows a "contest" format, winning is not the
emphasis. The Reflections Program can give children who have never
tried creating a work of art a chance to experiment and feel good
about their work and themselves. Every child that signs up for the
program is a winner.

Just for participating, the children get an entry
gift and join us for our Reflections party later in the year. As
acknowledgment of their hard work, all entries receive participation
ribbons and our winners get medals. First the children compete at
Sparks Elementary, winners then go on to county, and those winners
then go onto state competition.
