Congrats to all of the students who participated in Reflections this year through their local schools! At Council we received over 300 entries from 26 schools! The judges really enjoyed reviewing all of the entries and had a tough time making decisions. We were able to send 71 entries to the Washington State PTA Reflections program, those who received the Outstanding Interpretation award. We also awarded Award of Excellence and Award of Merit awards. This is the list of awards by school.
