“The Magic of a Moment”
Talented young artists from Area II Gwinnett County were recognized and showcased on November 3rd at the 2012-2013 Area II Gwinnett County Council of PTAs Reflections Exhibition & Reception. The event was held at the GCPS Instructional Support Center and welcomed contest artists, along with their family, friends, and participating schools to join together for a day that celebrated this year’s theme, “The Magic of a Moment” through the arts. Upon arrival, music filled the air and set a ‘magical’ tone with performances by Duluth Middle School orchestra, North Gwinnett Middle School orchestra, and Peachtree Ridge High School orchestra.
The Reflections Arts Recognition Program has been a national PTA student-achievement program for over 40 years. The excitement and enthusiasm this outstanding program generates for students and their schools is unmatched, with Georgia PTAs participating in the program at all PTA levels. In addition, the PTA Reflections Program increases community awareness of the importance of the arts in education.
Area II Council hopes that each student who participated in this year’s program has felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. We are proud of them all!
