Hello Eagle Rock Elementary Parents,

Our PTA Reflections Art Program is accepting submissions from students in the following categories. Entries are due on Monday, October 31st 2022.

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.

This year's theme is Show Your Voice.

All entrants will be celebrated at an art show on November 10, 2022 open to our entire school community.
