The 2024-2025 PTA Reflections Art Program invites students from all grades to explore their creativity under this year's powerful theme: “Embracing Imperfections.” This theme encourages children to reflect on the beauty found in flaws, mistakes, and uniqueness, and to express their thoughts through various artistic mediums.
