National PTA believes all children deserve a quality arts education
and encourages students to pursue artistic expression through participation
in its annual arts Reflections Program. The program offers students
the opportunity to create works of art for fun and recognition.
Students in preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to create
and submit works of art in one or more of six areas: literature,
musical composition, photography, visual arts (which includes art
forms such as drawing, painting, print making, and collage), dance
choreography and film/video production. In its more than 30-year
history, the program has encouraged millions of students across
the nation and in American schools overseas to create works of art.
Students participate in
the Reflections Program by submitting entries to their local PTA
or PTSA. Any PTA/PTSA in good standing is eligible to sponsor a
Reflections Program
Congratulations
