2019-20 Reflections State-Level Winners
Look Within
NCPTA applauds students and PTA families across the state for participating in PTA Reflections, a national arts recognition program that encourages students to explore their talents and express themselves. First-place winners will move on to the National PTA competition.
NCPTA Reflections Celebration
Our North Carolina Parent Teacher Association (NCPTA) team understands that our focus now and in the coming weeks must be on the health and well-being of our members and families.
With this in mind, NCPTA has decided to cancel the 2020 NCPTA Reflections Program, previously scheduled for April 25 in Durham. Since the duration of the coronavirus crisis is unknown, we will have to keep you posted with updates about the new date.
