National PTA’s Reflections program has helped students 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.

Each year, our students create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme. The theme for the 2019-2020 program year is Look Within. 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.

All requested applications have been sent.  Entries are due Friday, November 1, 2019.

Thank you to Samantha Miller for assuming the chairperson position for this committee.

Our back to school breakfast was a success!  The executive committee was joined by some familiar parents as well as some new parents.  It was a comfortable and relaxing environment where everyone introduced themselves and got to know each other better.  We discussed events that were going to take place throughout the school year and lots of questions were answered. All who attended received a little bag of kisses and tissues!  Thanks for all who joined us and for those who helped make the event successful!  We look forward to seeing everyone at our first official PTA Meeting on Tuesday September 17th at 7:00 p.m.
