I Belong! 25-26 PTA Reflections Theme!

The 2025-2026 National PTA Reflections program is here, and this year’s theme is “I Belong!” This powerful theme invites students to explore and express their thoughts, emotions and ideas in the arts. Whether your student is passionate about dance choreography, film, production, music composition, photography, literature, or visual arts, this is their chance to chose their creativity and share their unique perspective.

“I Belong!” will inspire students from across the nation to create original works that reflect their personal journeys and experiences. Don’t miss this opportunity to be a part of something special! We can’t wait to see what our students create!

Submission Deadline December 20, 2025

 


Greenville County Schools will offer the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) on Monday, October 13, 2025, from 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. at Charles Townes Center (Directions) to students who reside in Greenville County but are not currently enrolled in a South Carolina public school that offers aptitude testing.

The CogAT assessment is a three-battery multiple-choice aptitude assessment that measures reasoning skills with different types of verbal, quantitative, and nonverbal questions. Each section of the assessment takes approximately 45 minutes to complete, and the entire assessment takes three to four hours including breaks. A minimum score of 93% national percentile rank on any CogAT subtest (verbal, nonverbal, or quantitative) meets the state's criteria for the aptitude dimension of GT identification.   

Interested families must pre-register via the Student Registration for CogAT Aptitude Assessment Form by Monday, October 6. There will be no walk-ups or late registrations.
