2024-2025 Theme:

"Accepting Imperfection"

Deadline for submission: 11/4/2024

Entries can be turned into reflections@boalspta.org or Mrs. Wheeler in the office

Reflections has been a staple arts program in many schools for over 50 years. Through the efforts of our Local PTAs, millions of students have found a creative outlet in the areas of dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography, and visual arts.

With positive recognition as the focus of this program, rather than competition, students of all ages and abilities can experience the benefits of creative expression and help in finding their own voice in telling their unique story.

Started in 1969 by Mary Lou Anderson, then Colorado PTA President, Reflections has grown to be one of the largest nationwide programs of its kind, with more than 200,000 students participating annually.

Visit our 2019-2020 Reflections Gallery to see examples of entries that were awarded by Texas PTA in past years. And see last year's State and National results.

Express your artistic talent and tell us what's within reach through Reflections!

PARENTS AT LUNCH (PALS)

Volunteers Needed

PALS (Parents at Lunch) helps Boals Elementary's youngest students with adjusting to their new lunch routine. Volunteers lending a hand typically help with opening food packages, helping children obtain napkins and utensils, and monitoring the students for anything that needs a teacher's attention. Volunteers can sign up as often as they would like -- help once a week, twice a month, or at any time your schedule allows. Sign up dates will be available throughout the year.

MARY'S MARKETPLACE

About Mary's Marketplace

Boals students earn Boals Bucks for going above and beyond demonstrating our school-wide expectations. Each month, students have the opportunity to use their Boals Bucks to purchase items from our school store, Mary's Marketplace. Students are allowed to purchase 2 items. In class, students complete their order form and place it in a bag along with their Boals Bucks.

Volunteers

During each grade level lunch, our Mary's Marketplace volunteers place the student's items they purchased in a plastic bag with the student's order form. The teacher will then distribute the Mary's Marketplace items when they return to class.
