Reflections Art Contest

Help students get creative!

Reflections is a creative arts competition through the Washington State PTA and National PTA to encourage students to express their creative talents through their own original works.

Each year, Reflections challenges students to align their art to support a specific theme.

The theme for 2025-2026  is: I Belong!

Students will learn more about this program during their September library rotations. The entry due date will be announced soon. There will be a box in the school library starting early October.

Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade Cedar Wood students can submit entries in any of the six arts areas:

Literature

Entries are due by Monday, November 3rd 2025
 and can be turned in to the bin in the front of the school office (available in early October) or to the Cedar Wood art teacher, Mrs. Versdahl.
