The National PTA Reflections Program is America's oldest and largest arts education program of its kind. Reflections welcomes students of all grade levels and abilities to explore and be involved in the arts. Students are encouraged to reflect on the common theme and create original artistic works in the categories of dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography and visual arts.

  • Students are individually judged on their project and not judged against the other students.
  • They are judged on how well they explain their art fits the theme, the mastery of the medium used and their creativity.

    • Honorable Mention (white ribbon)
