For over 50 years, the National PTA has promoted Reflections, its arts appreciation and recognition program. Each year, students in grades K through 12 are recognized for bringing the theme to life through Film Production, Dance Choreography, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, and Visual Arts.
This year, students created their vision of “Look Within.” The East Cobb County Council of PTAs (ECCC) received artwork from 26 schools, 470 entries advanced to the ECCC PTA level, then submitted 126 winning entries to the Georgia PTA.
On January 23, an awards ceremony was held to honor the East Cobb students who were selected to advance to the state level. Some students’ work will be featured on a slideshow presentation, and it will be a wonderful evening celebrating the creativity and hard work of our East Cobb students.
Congratulations to the ECCC winners and good luck at the next stage of the competition!
