More about Reflections…
Membership in PTA provides the opportunity to participate in the National PTA Reflections program.Each year, over 300,000 students in Pre-K through Grade 12 create original works of art in response to a student selected theme. This 50+ year-old program helps them explore their own thoughts, feelings, and ideas, develop artistic literacy, increase confidence, and find a love for learning that will help them become more successful in school and in life.Curious about the history of the National PTA Reflections Program?
