Celebrate Arts Learning in our school community with Reflections.
PTA Reflections welcomes all grades and abilities to explore and be involved in the arts. All students with an artistic side are encouraged to enter the National PTA Reflections Program at Kenton. This year’s theme is “What is Your Story”. Students will reflect on a common theme and create original works of art in the categories of dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography and visual arts.
Five Reasons to Offer the Reflections Program:
1. Students who participate get an opportunity to explore the arts and culture, develop creative thinking and problem-solving skills and recognize themselves as artists and become more interested in the ideas and works of others.
2. Parent volunteers run the program, providing another opportunity to involve parents in their children’s education.
3. Participating in the Reflections Program gives students a chance to experiment in six art categories: literature, musical composition, photography, visual arts, dance choreography, and film production.
4. When children express themselves through words, pictures, music and other media, they grow intellectually
and learn to analyze their thoughts and feelings.
5. Parents are empowered to recognize, support, and enhance the continuous self-discovery process of their children.
