FREE Nationwide Art Contest
PTA Reflections - Extended Deadline Wed., Oct. 9th

The National PTA Reflections program is now underway. It is a FREE art contest sponsored by the National PTA.  It is a nationwide art contest to recognize the artistic talent of students in all grade levels (PreK- 12). Artists may compete in one or more of the following categories: 
  • Dance Choreography             
  • Film Production
  • Literature
  • Music Composition
  • Photography
  • Visual Arts

Artwork will be judged with special emphasis on how the art represents this year's theme: Believe, Dream, Inspire. Students will compete with other students at Nickajack within their grade category (PreK - 2 and 3-5). Winners will advance to the Jessye Coleman Council, then to the State and National levels.
