The National PTA Reflections arts program is a national arts recognition and achievement program for students. It provides an excellent opportunity for students to unleash their creative talents, express themselves imaginatively through the arts, and receive positive recognition for their original artwork. Additionally, the Reflections program helps to raise community awareness about the importance of the arts in education.
