REFLECTIONS ART PROGRAM

---

The 2025-2026 Reflections contest will be open in the Fall to all Esencia TK-8 Students! 

All work submitted must be original art created for the year’s theme “I Belong!”.

Official Rules:

• All submitted entries must be created by the student.  An adult may not alter the creative integrity of a student’s work. Because the program is designed to encourage and recognize each student’s individual creativity, help from an adult or collaboration with other students is not allowed except in the Accessible Arts Division.
• All work must be originally created for 2025 Reflections. No art submitted to other contests, or assigned or graded by teachers in a classroom, can be accepted.
• There are 6 available art categories:  

1. Dance Choreography
2. Film Production
3. Literature
4. Music Composition
5. Photography
6. Visual Arts

• Please read all category-specific guidelines carefully. All entries must adhere to the category-specific guidelines to qualify. Guidelines can be found HERE.  
• Works are evaluated within divisions: 
  • Primary (Grades Pre-K-2)
  • Intermediate ( Grades 3-5)
  • Middle School ( Grades 6-8)
  • Special Artist (Any student in any grade who has a self-identified disability. No disability verification is required.)
• All entries must be submitted to the Esencia front office by the end of the school day on Monday, September 23rd. No late entries can be accepted.
