Reflection Volunteer Lead Needed By October 15!

What could your child create if they had a reason to begin? The Reflections Program gives students a chance to imagine, create, and share through music, visual arts, literature, dance, video, or photography. All inspired by this year’s theme, “What My Culture Means to Me.” Could you help give them that chance? We need a volunteer lead by October 15 for our school to participate in Reflections this year.

Sign up here to help make this special experience for our students happen at Twain.
