2017-2018 Reflections Information Theme: Within Reach

The Reflections program is a National program that encourages students to express themselves through their artistic talents.  This program is for all students (preschool - 12th grade).
At WHE students may enter one piece in each of 6 categories:

Visual arts (2D and 3D) - YIPPPPEEE - These will be judged as two separate catagories
Literature
Photography

Film
Dance

ENTRY FORM & Consent Form Information


Students compete in different age groups:
Primary (K - 2nd grade) 
Intermediate (3rd - 5th grade)
Middle / Junior (6th - 8th grade) 

Our local PTA is responsible for judging the Primary and Intermediate categories, we will also judge 6th grade entries but will only be allowed to send forward a limited number of entries as they will be competing with 7th and 8th graders in the Middle / Junior age division at the Roy Council level.

The top two entries from each category and age group move onto the Council level (at Roy High).  

To find out more about this great program please check out the UTA PTA website

Please read the Official Rules and the Rules for each category you want to participate in.


REMEMBER students can enter in multiple categories but only ONE time per category.  (Example, 1 visual arts, 1 musical composition, 1 photography).
