Nixon School PTA

The PTA is the oldest and largest volunteer association that works exclusively on behalf of ALL children and youth. We value the partnership that our PTA has built over the years at Nixon with students, teachers and parents. The goal is accomplished through the cooperative efforts of our Nixon families and staff. Parent involvement is critical to the success of ALL our students. We encourage and invite everyone to join our dynamic and dedicated PTA. The donation of your time and talent to our school, as well as your participation in our fundraisers can and does make a positive impact for ALL Nixon students.

PTA Reflections
PTA REFLECTIONS PROGRAM
The National PTA Reflections program is an annual theme based art competition which encourages students to express themselves in art. Six art categories are recognized: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Musical Composition, Photography and Visual Arts. With no limit to the number of entries one may submit, a student will often submit an entry in the art area in which he or she feels most competent and another entry in an art area that is new and challenging.
In Roxbury, this program is open to all students in pre-K through 8th grade. Deadline for entries will be in November 2010 (tba) and all entries are displayed at the Ledgewood Mall in celebration of Youth Arts Month (March). More than 400 Roxbury students participated in the Reflections Program during the 2009/2010 school year.
The theme for this past year’s program was “Beauty is…”
