Reflections® is a theme-focused National PTA and Washington State PTA arts recognition program. The Reflections program celebrates K-12 student creativity and encourages school-age youth to express themselves through the arts. Student art is judged first at the school level (Meridian Park). Finalists from the school level will move on to the district level (Shoreline) and then the state and national levels for judging.
Meridian Park Elementary Entry Deadline: Dec 5, 2026
All Meridian Park students are encouraged to participate in the Reflections Art Program! (Previous art experience not required | Accessible Arts Division for students who identify as having a disability).
