Reflections Art Program

Reflections Art Program 2025-2026

The National PTA Reflections Program is a national arts recognition and achievement program for students. For over 50 years, Reflections has helped students explore their own thoughts, feelings and ideas, develop artistic literacy, increase confidence and find a love for learning. The Reflections program provides opportunities for recognition and access to the arts which boosts student confidence and success in the arts and in life. Since 1969, more than 10 million students across the nation have taken part in this popular PTA program. Each year, more than 300,000 students in Pre K-12 create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme.

2025-2026 Theme

The 2025-2026 Reflections theme is I Belong! The theme for the PTA Reflections program is meant not only to inspire student artwork, but also conversations, creative expression and learning between PTAs, parents and students. “I Belong!” encourages conversations about what it means to belong, the value and privilege of feeling like we belong somewhere and how we can create welcoming spaces to share that feeling with others.  
Read more about this year's theme and why it was chosen.

Foothill students are encouraged to participate in the High School (Grades 9-12) or Accessible Arts (Grades 6-12) divisions. Students can submit their completed works of art in one or all of these six art categories.
