Reflections Art Program
Reflections is a program established by the National PTA over 50 years ago to support students’ participation in Fine Arts in schools. Through participation in the Arts, students gain self-confidence, find ways to express their feelings and ideas, explore fundamental questions of humanity, develop creative thinking skills that support problem-solving, and derive satisfaction and pride from completing a creation of their own making.
This year's Reflections theme is
ACCEPTING IMPERFECTION
Students submit their completed works of art in one or all of the available arts categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, Visual Arts.
Students participate in the appropriate division for their grade: Middle School (Grades 6-8) and/or Accessible Arts. Students who identify as having a disability and may receive services under IDEA or ADA: Section 504 may enter in the Special Artist Division or grade division most closely aligned to their functional abilities.
Arts Categories
Reflections submissions must include the entry form (detailed packet linked) and parent/student membership in the CTMS PTA.
Entries are due Friday, November 1, 2024.
