🎨✨ As many of you begin preparing for the 2026–2027 Reflections program, this year's theme is "What My Culture Means to Me."

We look forward to seeing how students across Alabama bring this meaningful theme to life through their creativity and artistic expression.

Several of you have already reached out about getting a head start this summer, and we think that's a fantastic idea! Starting early gives students plenty of time to reflect, create, and develop their entries.

If you need information about this year's Reflections program, we're here to help. Feel free to reach out anytime at [email protected]. We want to make sure you have the information and support you need to make this year's program smooth and successful.

Let's get ready to celebrate our students' creativity and help them share what their culture means to them!
