Is this a contest?  Not technically.  Although pieces are independently judged and outstanding efforts may advance to different levels,  the PTA considers this an art program, not a contest.

Can I see examples?  Yes!  Go to
http://pta.browsermedia.com   to see and hear last year’s National Finalists, including one from Longfellow!

I need help with recording!  Call Mr. or Mrs. Rea.  They love to help kids with Reflections!

What do I get?  The personal satisfaction in knowing that you are an accomplished artist — Oh yeah, and an invitation to the Reflections’ Pizza Party.
