2023-24 reflections program at MPE

what is reflections?

The National PTA Reflections Program is an arts recognition program to encourage artistic creativity in the classroom and at home.  It offers students opportunities to express themselves creatively in six different art categories and to receive positive recognition for original works of art inspired by a pre-selected theme.

This year's theme is: “I am Hopeful Because...”

Students may choose one or all of the available art categories:

Dance Choreography

Film Production

Literature

Music Composition

Photography

Visual Arts

 

More details on the process, divisions, and categories can be found here. 

Please make sure you follow all the rules and presentation guidelines mentioned here to avoid disqualification.

Students may enter as many pieces as they would like in one or all art categories.  Students will need to submit a Student Participation Form for EVERY piece they submit for judging. Please make sure to read the General Participation Rules and the Art Specific Rules.
