Discovery PTSA is a proud supporter of Reflections - a nationwide arts recognition program for students. 

We express our gratitude and appreciation to Sandhya Deepak, our Reflections parent volunteer, for her time, dedication and organization to provide this program for our Discovery students. Without her, Discovery would not have been able to participate in this great art program.
