The students of Grant Elementary School were beaming with pride this past month, showcasing their pieces for the 2024-25 PTA Reflections Art Program. The annual national contest has reached over 10 million students since 1969, encouraging them to express themselves imaginatively in several art forms. Students across Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District were able to submit literature, photography, visual arts and more under the theme of “Accepting Imperfection.” (Photo by Thomas Leffler)
