2021 Reflections Award Winners and Award Video

Council judging for the Reflections program is complete! 
 
Over 300 entries from all across Plano ISD were judged by generous professionals in the community. All of them were amazed at the talent we have in Plano. We were in awe that we had so many entries across the district. We were also impressed at the beautiful art from our kiddos at Schimelpfenig Middle School. Thank you for being a creative kid and participating!
 
It is hard to progress from the school level to the council level. But 14 kiddos from our Schimelpfenig Middle School kiddo's did progress and 4 out of the 20 were recognized!!  WOW!  We are so proud that you made it to the council level.
 
At Council level judging, only 10% of entries by grade division and category (for example: Primary, Dance) would get the Award of Excellence, 15%, Award of Merit and 25% Honorable Mention. From there, only ONE Award of Excellence per group could move on to represent Plano ISD for a total of 23 items across all age groups and categories.
 
Now, here are the results from the council:
  • Sana Dantulwar from 8th grade received an Award of Merit for her work titled "I Matter Because Nature Matters To Me"  under Visual arts
  • Sanvi Dantulwar from 8th grade received an Award of Merit for her work titled "A Pathway to Great Things"  under Visual arts
  • Sanvi Dantulwar from 8th grade received an Award of Merit for her work titled "No Matter What..." under Literature. 
  • Andrew Lee from 6th grade received an Honorable mention for his work titled "Cubing With the World" under Visual arts
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!! YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF WHAT YOU HAVE ACHIEVED.
