Welcome to the PTA Reflections Program!

The 2023/2024 Reflections Theme: "I am hopeful because..."


 Congratulations to the following Lakeview Students:


Lakeview Students Advancing to District/State

There will be a Reflections Reception on Monday, February 26th at the NISD Legacy Learning Center in Haslet (Times to come soon), to celebrate all of our Reflections participants!  At the Reception, all Visual Arts, Photography and Literature entries which were advanced to Council-level judging will be displayed, along with their recognition awards, and we will also have a video/audio show of the Film, Dance, and Music Composition  entries. Light refreshments will also be served. 

 

Student Participation

Our deadline has passed for participation for the 23/24 school year, but we encourage our students to stay creative throughout the year.  Each year students are asked to submit theme ideas to Texas PTA to qualify for the National PTA vote. Our 24/25 school year Reflections theme will be: Accepting Imperfection.  The winning theme, Accepting Imperfection, for the 2024-2025 Reflections program was suggested by a Texas student from Barbara Bush Middle School PTA in North East ISD! We are super excited for Paige and cannot wait to see how our Trophy Club, Texas students interpret her theme! 

Students can start on their projects now! Happy creating!

More information on deadlines for the 24/25 school year will be posted as they become available.  

INformation

The Reflections program is open to all Lakeview students. The student - or at least one person from their primary household - must be a current member of the Lakeview PTA. 

Eligible students may enter any or all of the six art categories. Multiple entries within a single arts category are permitted.  Each entry must be the original work of one student and created specifically for the Reflections program based on the theme. Each entry must also conform to the guidelines (see Rules).

See Program Rules Packet (link below) for full details.

Visit our 2022-2023 Reflections Gallery to see examples of entries from last year.

Reflections is a national art contest open to students K-12th grade, so fifth graders are encouraged to continue through middle school and beyond.  With positive recognition as the focus of this program, rather than competition, students of all ages and abilities can experience the benefits of creative expression and help in finding their own voice in telling their unique story.

 

National PTA has a long-standing commitment to arts education. The Reflections program provides opportunities for recognition and access to the arts which boost student confidence and success in the arts 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. 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.
