The arts can have a profound impact on the social emotional learning and health of our students? We encourage ALL Jaguars to participate in the 2020-2021 virtual Reflections program by creating original works of art in response to the student-selected theme:
This year, because of COVID-19, we’re going VIRTUAL and it couldn’t be a better time to participate in the arts!
Students of all grades and abilities are invited to participate and submit their entries by Tuesday, December 1, 2020. Here’s how:
1. CREATE original works of art in one or all of the following categories using the official rules and guidelines under the different arts categories and grade-level divisions. Students may enter up to one submission in each of the arts categories below:
  • Dance Choreography (rules)
  • Film Production (rules)
  • Literature (rules)
  • Music Composition (rules)
  • Photography (rules)
  • Visual Arts (rules)
  • Special Artist - All Disciplines (rules) – For students with disabilities who receive services under IDEA or ADA: Section 504
  1. Save and upload a file of the student artwork (photos of the Visual Arts pieces will be accepted this year) to the Google Drive under the appropriate category with the following title:
    Student First and Last Name_Grade_Arts Category_Title of Work
    e.g. Amy Smith_Grade 3_Dance Choreography_World Peace
  2. Download, complete and upload the completed 2020 Student Entry Form, including a student-written artist statement, to the Google Drive under the appropriate category with the following title:

    *All pieces must be uploaded to the Google Drive by Friday October 23, 2020 with a complete Student Entry Form to be considered*
  3. Stay tuned! Students will be judged in three areas: interpretation of the theme (I Matter Because…), originality and technique. Awards will be announced by the end of November. Students who are awarded top honors will advance to the county level and then have the chance to advance to the state and national levels for awards and prizes.
**Please save all original submissions as physical pieces may be requested.
We hope all students will participate and make our first year of Reflections at Jones Lane amazing!
