PTSA's Reflections Program

The National PTA Reflections Program theme this year is “Diversity Means…”.

“Reflections” is an arts recognition and achievement program that provides opportunities for students to express themselves creatively in six arts categories: Visual Arts, Photography, Music, Dance, Film Production and Literature. Students receive positive recognition for original works of art inspired by the theme. Since 1969, Reflections has been one of PTAs most successful programs, and over 10 million students have participated nationally in the past 40 years. Over the years, we have always had great success with the program in Florida as well. Last year over 12,000 students from local PTA units across the state participated with nine of our talented students winning awards at the National level. We continue to be proud of all Reflections participants and amazed by the outstanding quality of the work submitted.

Results:
All Mandarin Middles School participants were recognized by our PTSA during our General Meeting/Reflections Open House on November 15.

Congratulations to the 18 of these students whose entries (6 Visual Arts, 6 Photography, and 6 Literature) were selected to move on to district-level judging. 

Congratulations to the 3 of these students who received recognition with Awards of Merit from the Duval County Council of PTAs/PTSAs for their outstanding photography submissions in the PTA Reflections program. Their entries will be on display at the Reflections Reception that will be held in the spring.
