MLWGS proudly honors two recipients of the Virginia PTA Reflections award

PTSA Reflections Winners 2025

Congratulations to Maggie Walker’s Peter Yanovitch (‘26-Chesterfield) and Jake Nelson (‘26-Chesterfield) were recognized at the Virginia PTA Reflections award ceremony last Saturday. Jake earned an honorable mention for film production and Peter earned an outstanding interpretation for music composition and advanced to the national competition. 

Students in Pre-K through grade 12 were invited to create theme-based artwork in the categories of dance choreography, film production, literature, musical composition, photography, or visual arts. Membership in the Virginia PTA provides the opportunity to participate in the National PTA Reflections Arts Contest. This competition encourages students to explore the arts and express themselves by providing positive recognition for their artistic efforts. Since it was founded in 1969 by Mary Lou Anderson, millions of students have benefited from this program.
