Get Ready for Reflections 2024-2025! The theme for the next school year is “Accepting Imperfection”. Year after year our Broncos show us their talents in amazing and creative ways. This National PTA program is an arts competition that gives students confidence in their abilities to explore ideas and learn through the arts for over the past 50+ years.
The National PTA Reflections Program is an arts recognition and achievement program for students. The Reflections Program provides opportunities for students to express themselves creatively and to receive positive recognition for original works of art inspired by a pre-selected theme, while increasing community awareness on the importance of the arts in education. Participation in the Reflections Program is a great way for students to explore and learn about various art forms. Creating art is a valuable learning process that challenges students to use their critical thinking skills as well as their creative talents to create art that supports a specific theme.
Students at Bevis can qualify in multiple categories. Only original works of art will be accepted.
