Students shaping the direction for each Reflections program year is one of National PTA’s greatest points of pride.

Each year, National PTA challenges students from across the country to submit theme ideas for the Reflections program. The student who submits the winning entry receives a cash award, and their theme is used as the foundation of the Reflections program in a following year!
