Plano
Students Win Big in State PTA Reflections Competition
April 13, 2006
Plano ISD students outdid themselves again this year in the National
PTA Reflections Program with a record-breaking 72 awards at Texas
PTA State, and an unparalleled four entries advancing to National
competition.
With over 70,000 entries submitted in the state of
Texas alone, and so very few advancing to the National level, it
is an incredible feat to have four entries advancing from the same
school district.
The students whose entries won the Overall Award
of Excellence in the 2005-2006 Reflections program, “I Wonder
Why…” are:
- Elise Cai, Andrews Elementary, Gr. 2, “My Cavity Situation:
I Wonder Why if you have Cavities it's Better to Have Crowns,” Visual
Arts
- Hayden Larsen, Barksdale Elementary, Gr. 2, “Trash
to Treasure,” Photography
- Dara Li, Skaggs Elementary, Gr.
2, “Shooting Stars,” Music
- Theresa Lii, Vines High
School, Gr. 10, “I wonder why I have
to eat these beans,” Visual Arts
Reflections is an arts recognition and achievement program for
students based on the belief that all children deserve a quality
arts education. Each student may enter in any of the four arts
areas: literature, visual arts, photography and music. Students
may submit more than one entry in any or all of the four arts areas.
Students enter the Reflections program through their local PTA/PTSA.
Awards are given at the local, council, district, state and national
levels.
Congratulations to the 2005-2006 Reflections program Texas PTA
State award winners from Plano ISD listed below. All students who
won awards from the Plano ISD Council of PTAs Reflections program
received their awards at the Council Awards Ceremony at Haggard
Middle School on April 5.
