Contact Massachusetts PTA for instructions and materials. Use the 2015-16 Reflections Toolkit to guide your PTA/PTSA and make your Reflections program a success.

Step 1: Start the Arts

Watch this 30min video or take the Reflections Leader e-learning course to walk through a step-by-step process for engaging students, parents and educators in Reflections while learning about resources and tools provided by your State PTA and National PTA.

Step 2: Organize and Plan Your Program

Recruit a committee/team of volunteers to assist with program tasks. Also recruit community arts professionals to review artwork and determine awards. Customize your checklist to organize tasks and schedule deadlines.

Step 3: Promoting Reflections

Announce your call for entries using PTA, school and community communication channels. Be sure to include a deadline and drop off location as well as submission instructions. Consider these Tips for Promoting Reflections.

Step 4: Organize Artwork for Judging

First, check-in entries and review artwork for qualification. Organize entries by division and category, then assign them to a judge.

Step 5: Celebrate and Recognize Your Participants

Start with the Reflections celebration guide to help plan your event. Share the media advisory and press release with local media.

Step 6: Wrap Up

Be sure to thank school staff, community partners, PTA members and judges. Organize information to share with PTA and school leaders.
