Inspirations Contests

Thanks for all your dedication to Spectrum Academy. This information went out via email on January 4, 2013, but it seems as if many did not receive it. Please ensure your email address is correct with the front desk as most of the PTO information is sent out via email, along with Facebook, and Spectrum Academy's website. If you need a hard copy of any of the information, copies will be available at the front desk.

The due date for all entries is January 22, 2013. No late entries can be accepted.

The theme this year is "Beauty Is".......

The categories are: Literature, Visual Arts, Photography, Musical
Composition, Theatre, 3-D Art, Film/Video, Choreography/Dance, and
Graphic/Digital Arts.
