Reflections
We welcome all Neuse River Middle School Students to participate in the annual Reflections Contest!! Deadline is extended to Monday morning, Nov. 1st and all entries and work must be submitted to the office. Theme: " I Will Change the World By..."
Reflections is a National PTA contest. It’s a contest that starts on the school level. Students may choose one or all of the available arts categories: Visual Arts 2D and 3D, Dance, Film, Music, Literature, or Photography. Please see the office to pick your reflections entry packet and a guideline sheet for the category/categories you are interested in participating in.
Community members and local artists are asked to judge the student’s entries. The winners on the school level move up to the county level and the winners of the county level move up to the state level, and then nationals.
Last year, we had 2 students place on the County Level-James P. (Special Artist Art) and Mariah J. (Dance).
It's a contest we have been doing for years at Neuse River Middle and we have had many county and state winners over the years. It is a lot of fun for the kids to participate and for the students and parents to view their artwork displayed at the school. You are all talented!
Our contest is going on NOW!
