This year's theme is: "Show Your Voice". Entries can be in visual art, photography, dance, music, film or literature. All work must be created specifically with this theme in mind, and be the work of one student. Entry packets are coming home in backpacks, but you can print the form here. Please review rules on PTA website for size, formats, and how to label and package artwork in your chosen category. If guidelines are not followed, artwork may be disqualified, unfortunately. Submissions are due no later than Tuesday, October 25th. Any questions, please contact Susan Botts at susanbotts07@gmail.com. How will you: Show your voice!
