🎨✨ Calling All Garland Artists! ✨🎨

It’s time for the 2026–2027 PTA Reflections Contest! This year’s theme is:
❤️ “What My Culture Means to Me” ❤️

We would LOVE to see our Garland Bears get creative and share what culture means to them! Students can express themselves through:

💃 Dance Choreography
🎥 Film Production
📚 Literature
🎵 Music Composition
📸 Photography
🎨 Visual Arts

Culture can mean so many different things—family traditions, favorite foods, special places, music, stories, celebrations, or simply the things that make YOU, YOU!

📅 DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES: OCTOBER 16TH!

Check out the flyer for some great conversation starters to help get those creative ideas flowing. Parents can help start the conversation, but remember—the idea and creative work should belong to the student. 💙💛

🌟 Your Culture. Your Story. Your Art. Your Voice. 🌟 We can’t wait to see what our amazing Garland students create! 🎨✨

Random tardy day winners for September is 4th grade! YAY!

Our random tardy day was September 22nd and 4th grade had the least amount of tardies that day. That means our students were at school ON TIME and ready TO LEARN! Way to go 4th grade students, parents and teachers!
