Spring Branch ISD (SBISD) is proud to recognize an exceptional group of student artists who earned the Overall Award of Excellence in the National PTA Reflections Program and will represent the district at the state level.
The National PTA Reflections program invites students in Pre-K through Grade 12 to create original works of art inspired by an annual theme. This year’s theme, “I Belong,” challenged students to reflect on identity, connection, and community through creative expression. Student entries were submitted across six categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, and Visual Arts, with divisions based on grade level, including Accessible Arts, which welcomes students of all abilities.
Based on State PTA rules and guidelines, select student works earning top honors advance for state and national-level recognition.
