 Students throughout the MISD participated in the 2007-2008 PTA Reflections Competition, the annual artistic exploration and expression contest sponsored by the PTA.
Reflections Program by the numbers:
- 227 total entries from schools throughout MISD
- 64 entries recognized at district level
- 15 entries advanced to state
The MISD Council PTA will hold a recognition reception for the district level Reflections winners on March 27, 2008 in the MISD Board Room at 7:00 PM. For information on this event, please contact Kati Walker.
The Reflections Program provides opportunities for students to explore and learn about various art forms. Student entries can be created as a classroom assignment or independently at home. Artistic exploration and expression enhance and develop intellectual, social and physical skills. Creating art is a valuable tool in the learning process. When children express themselves through words, pictures, movement, music, photography and other art forms, they grow intellectually. They learn to analyze their thoughts, feelings and ideas. They learn to look at things, people and experiences in a fresh and exciting way and they become more interested in the ideas and works of others.
The Reflections Program also helps parents encourage and recognize the continuous self-discovery process of their children. The PTA's Reflections Program is designed to enhance a quality arts education. It provides opportunities for students to express themselves and to receive positive recognition for their artistic efforts. Parents, teachers and community members all play a critical role in fostering a positive learning environment for children.
