Does your child have an interest in writing, producing films, or taking photos? Or do they enjoy drawing, painting, writing your own music, or choreographing dance? Then join us and have fun unleashing their inner artist with the PTA Reflections contest! The competition starts within our own school, and then they have the chance to compete against other students in the district, state and nationally.
This year’s theme, “Look Within,” calls for your own unique interpretation through the arts. Categories include Visual Arts, Photography, Music Composition, Film Production, Dance Choreography and Literature.
Students can pick up entry forms and rules from the Manning front office starting Monday, September 16. You can also visit the Manning PTA Website for more information, and/or download official program rules, submission guidelines, and entry forms on the Jeffco PTA website (http://www.jcpta.org/programs/reflections/reflections-students/).
