What is Reflections?
The Reflections Program is a National PTA and WSPTA cultural arts competition. The purpose is to provide an opportunity for students to use their creative talents by expressing themselves through their own original works for the theme of "I am Hopeful Because"

Why Reflections?
Reflections is so much more than "just an art contest." It helps kids take risks, be inspired, think creatively, receive positive recognition, and be celebrated for their works of art. It also allows our community to celebrate creativity in our students! Studies have shown there is a relationship between the arts and health and well-being across one’s lifespan.

NCHS PTSA Reflections deadline is Wednesday, November 22.

The North Creek/Skyview PTSA Food Pantry will be providing Thanksgiving Meals again this year to families in need of food support.

The Thanksgiving Meal consists of: Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, a canned vegetable side, gravy, potatoes, chicken stock, canned fruit, dinner rolls and a pie. (As always, this is what we hope to be able to provide, but the final meal will be dependent on donations received and food supply availability).
