About the Reflections Program
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, over 300,000 students in Pre-K through Grade 12 create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme. In response to this theme, students create works of art in one or all the available arts categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, and Visual Arts.
Student winners from the local level have the opportunity to move up through their district, region, council, and state PTA programs to the national level. Student entries submitted to the national level go through two rounds of review by esteemed arts professionals across the country. National Reflections winners are announced in May and celebrated annually at the National PTA’s Convention & Expo in June. Over 200 students are recognized for their achievements in the arts with prizes and scholarships, and their works are showcased and exhibited throughout the year.
