Reflections

Note from 2024-2026 Chair:

 
It has been an honor to have served as Reflections Chair for the last two years.  To have seen the wonderful artwork from all the participants.  I have experienced their feelings and thoughts through it and it has been inspiring to say the least.  Thank you to all the volunteers throughout Miami-Dade County for your dedication and hard work, the judges, the chairs and MDCC PTA/PTSA Board, THANK YOU and I wish the new board great success, the new chair a successful and wonderful event for the 2026-27 school year.  Our kids are amazing and deserve the right to express themselves via the arts.  Thank you.
