For the last 51 years, the National PTA Reflections Art Program has been a wonderful way for students to showcase their talents by taking the theme for the year, reflecting upon it, and creating a work of art and entering it into this amazing program where they can earn awards and possibly even a cash prize at national level! Anyone can enter because in this program, INTERPRETATION OUTWEIGHS TECHNICAL SKILLS!
This year’s theme is I MATTER BECAUSE. Mrs. Weireter and Mrs. Williams share why they matter to our world. Why do YOU matter? Tap into your inner artist and share it with us! Whether it be through a painting, an original song, a dance, even a movie! All submissions are now 100% VIRTUAL! Learn more here: https://vistaverdepta.org/reflections/ or contact Lilli and Roxanne at Reflections@vistaverdepta.org.
In today’s crazy uncertain world, together or apart, IVA, Hybrid or Traditional – one thing that is certain… We are all Vista Verde Vikings!
2020 has certainly made us realize that everything we thought we know, we really don’t know! Our one true strength and certainty comes from community and togetherness. The Vista Verde PTA has been working quietly on the side lines making sure that our teachers, students, and their families are all supported during these challenging times.
As we start off this year’s membership drive, please know how valuable and important each and every family is to our Viking Community. Your membership donations are used throughout the school year for multiple programs, supplies, and events. This year events are taking a different turn – but your donations are still being used for the greater good for our school. Lexia, ST Math, Raz Kids, Reflections Art Competition, Square 1 Art, AEFA programs, Math and Science Olympiads, 5th Grade Ladies Tea and Guys Night, 8th Grade promotion are just a few of the programs that the PTA facilitates.
Please consider joining our Vista Verde PTA – no matter the format of schooling you have chosen. We all reap the benefit of being a Vista Verde Viking. Membership is open to all members of our community, parents, teachers, grandparents, care givers, and friends. Consider sponsoring one of your teachers for the PTA too – and let’s come together as a community and support the Vista Verde PTA.
Our traditional annual class competition will still take place from October 1 – 31. Top three classes with the most percentage of memberships by October 31st will win a pizza party – Covid Friendly Style with gift certificates.
