We had such an incredible evening at the Westerville Parent Council Reflections Awards Ceremony on Tuesday! The creativity, talent, and heart our students shared through their artwork truly made it a night to remember.

This year, we received 92 entries from 10 Westerville City Schools buildings, and we were honored to recognize 39 District Award recipients. Every student who participated should be so proud of their work!

We are especially grateful to Musicologie for sponsoring this event. Their support helped make this celebration possible, and we truly appreciate their partnership in uplifting the arts in our schools.

Official pictures from the award ceremony taken by our fantastic district photographer are coming soon!
A huge thank you to our families, volunteers, and supporters who make this program possible. It is such a joy to meet these talented student artists in person — you truly get to know them through their art and artist statements.

We hope all of our district student artists will participate again next year! The 2025–2026 theme is “What My Culture Means to Me.” We can’t wait to see the amazing work our students create next school year!

Join us in taking action to make schools a safe place for all children and families. Visit PTA.org/TakeAction to contact your members of Congress and urge them to co-sponsor and pass the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act, legislation that would prohibit immigration enforcement actions within 1,000 feet of schools, bus stops and early childhood centers, helping ensure our schools are a safe place for every family and for every child to learn and thrive.

Please share your January fine arts events below so our community can make plans to support our student artists!
