MHS PTSA Reflections – Call for Entries!

McLean High School PTSA invites students to participate in the 2026–2027 National PTA Reflections Program!

This year’s theme is “What My Culture Means to Me.”

Students can express their creativity in four categories: Visual Arts, Photography, Literature, and Film Production. Accessible Arts is also available for eligible students.

Students may enter more than one category, but only one entry per student per category is allowed. Selected entries may advance to the Fairfax County, Virginia, and National PTA levels.

Students who identify as having a disability and who have an FCPS IEP or 504 may choose to participate in the Accessible Arts Division.

Submission Deadline: November 8, 2026

Students can also scan the QR code on the flyer to view the guidelines and submit their entry.  

All participants must be McLean PTSA member. If the student hasn’t joined the PTSA, please join here.
