The Vista Verde PTA Reflections team would like to thank all students who submitted an entry to this year’s PTA Reflections Art program! Every year, students are challenged to submit artwork with a particular theme in mind. This year’s theme is: I WILL CHANGE THE WORLD BY…We’d like to send a special thank you to VV students and Reflections participants, Bella, Jay, and Aanya, who encouraged students to give it a try! Next up, submissions will be judged anonymously by professional experts in each category. All first-place winners will then move on to the Irvine Council, and we will celebrate all Vikings who participated with a virtual gallery and a special awards ceremony.
