RENNER’S SPRING OUTREACH PROJECT

Renner’s Spring Outreach Project is a Canned Food Drive, which will benefit the North Texas Food Bank.  The North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) is a nonprofit social benefit organization that seeks to eliminate Hunger by distributing food and grocery products through a network of nonprofit organizations, while providing education and increasing community awareness on issues of Hunger.

Renner students and families can support this project by making a canned food donation from March 26th – April 13th.  Donations may be placed in the collection bins located outside the front office.

Some of the items needed are:  Canned Tuna or Chicken, Canned Chili, Canned Stew, Peanut Butter, Fruit Cocktail, Beans, Pudding Cups, Rice, Pretzels, Vanilla Wafers, Macaroni & Cheese, Shelf-Stable Milk, and Cereal Bars.

Thank you for your donation, and showing how much Renner cares about our community!

Reflections 2011-2012

The PTA believes all children deserve a quality arts education and encourages students to pursue artistic expression through participation in its annual arts Reflections Program. The Texas Reflections program has the most participation of any PTA program with entries totaling over 75,000 across the state. The program offers students the opportunity to create works of art for fun and recognition. Students in preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to create and submit works of art in six areas:

  • literature
  • musical composition
  • photography
  • visual arts
  • dance choreography
  • film/video

 

In its more than 30-year history, the program has encouraged millions of students across the nation and in American schools overseas to create works of art.

Please visit the Texas PTA website for rules and information.

Entry with forms are due by November 4th. Please submit to front office.

Please contact the Arts in Education Chair if you have any questions or would like to volunteer.

A great learning experience! When children express themselves through words, pictures, movement, music, photography and other art forms, they grow intellectually. They learn to analyze their thoughts, feelings and ideas. They learn to look at things, people and experiences in a fresh and exciting way and they become more interested in the ideas and works of others.
