What is Reflections
The Reflections Program is a National PTA and WSPTA cultural arts competition. The purpose is to provide an opportunity for students to use their creative talents by expressing themselves through their own original works for the theme of "Within Reach?".  Click here to read more on the WA State PTA Reflections site.

Reflection Categories
PTA Reflections welcomes all grades and abilities to explore and be involved in the arts. 
Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, Visual Arts and 3 Dimensional.

Why Reflections?
Reflections is so much more than "just an art contest."  It helps kids take risks, be inspired, think creatively and receive positive recognition and be celebrated for their works of art.  It also allows our community to celebrate creativity in our students!

Studies have shown there is  the relationship between the arts and health and well-being across one’s lifespan.  Thank you for encouraging art by doing Reflections at your PTA!
