Reflections Art Contest Results
|
Our Walt Disney artists worked extremely hard interpreting this year’s Reflections theme:
Heroes Around Me
.
We are very proud of all the students who participated. Their hard work and creativity were a pleasure to observe and made the job extremely tough for our judges. As you might remember from the previous newsletters, one artist from each category of submitted artwork was chosen to move on to the next level of competition at our Walt Disney Reflections showcase in October.
Here is a list of the proud winners from our school, whose artwork was submitted for the PTA District Level judging:
Lila Chiang ~ Visual Arts/Primary
Aarnav Dixit ~ Film Production/Primary
London Derksen ~ Photography/Primary
Brenna Derksen ~ Literature/Primary
Lars Pawlak ~ Visual Arts/Intermediate
Gannon Gage ~ Literature/Intermediate
Congratulations to
Brenna Derksen
(second grade), whose Literature Arts entry has been awarded the District Level
Award of Excellence
, and will be moving on to the next level!
Also, congratulations to second grader,
London Derksen
, for receiving a PTA
Award of Merit in Photography
, and Kindergartener,
Aarnav Dixit
, for receiving a PTA
Award of Merit in Film Production
!
