Please remember that on Mondays school ends at 1:00 pm. The afternoon time on Mondays is unstructured and no work is assigned. We have shared some ideas for students or families can create their own activities. Monday Afternoon Ideas
We will be putting together a slide show to celebrate Young students for all of the hard work that they are doing in remote learning. Please upload your pictures to the following link by the end of the day on Friday, 10/2 to be included in our next slideshow. 10/2 Remote Learning Pictures I can't wait to see all of the great things that our students are doing as they learn from home.
Zoom: Thank you for making sure that your child's first and last name are identifiable on their device when they enter zoom. In order to help keep our online classes secure, teachers will not admit anyone to class with a name that is not recognized.

Reflections Program
Welcome to the 2020-2021 Reflections Program!
Reflect on the theme, create artwork, and be recognized!
PTA Reflections is a nationally acclaimed student recognition program to encourage artistic creativity at home. Students of all grades (K-12) and abilities may participate, explore the arts and reflect their thoughts based on the 2020-2021 theme: “I Matter Because...”.
Given the impact of COVID-19, student participation in arts programs like Reflections is now more important than ever to help them process their thoughts and feelings. As many students will be learning remotely, we will be running our Reflections programs virtually. This year, you can submit your Reflections submission form and artwork online.
Following are the Art Categories:
· Dance Choreography
· Film Production
· Literature
· Musical Composition
· Photography
· Visual Arts
· Special Artists
Last date to submit your artwork: Thursday, October 29th, 2020
Submit your artwork online: https://sites.google.com/view/ippc-reflections
You will also find all the competition rules and guidelines on the google site mentioned above.
