Reflections is a national arts recognition and achievement program for students. Since 1969, 10 million students across the nation have participated. Let's show how talented and artistic our Alisal students are!


Each year, the Reflections program encourages students of all ages to create and submit original works of art in the medium of their choice that reflect on the annual theme “Look Within” (Dance choreography, Film Production, Literature
Music Composition, Photography, Visual arts)

There also is a special artist division to provide all students the opportunity to participate in the program. Submissions are reviewed by visual, literary and performing art experts, and students are recognized for their artistic ingenuity in bringing the theme to life.
