Reflections
What is the Reflections program? For over 50 years, Reflections has helped children to 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 life. If you would like to learn more about Reflections, visit the Reflections – 15th District PTA website. The theme for this year is “I am hopeful because.” We hope that your student will participate!
