Conrad Fischer's 2nd Annual Mom’s Night Out is a chance for Fischer Moms to meet, and get to know one another in a casual, social setting, while supporting the Fischer PTA. Each grades hosts will have a donation box to collect $10 or a gift card at the event to help fund activities throughout the year. (Donations optional!) Light refreshments will be served, so please feel free to bring a bottle of wine, spirits, and/or a non- alcoholic beverage to share, and all unopened bottles will also be donated to the Fischer PTA to be used as a basket raffle item during a future event. Don’t miss this chance to connect with other parents and support the Fischer PTA! (This is a Moms Only event, so please keep the Dads and little ones at home.) We know you may have kids in multiple grades so use this form to RSVP for any event you will attend! Thank you to all who have already RSVP’ed and to our hosts!

REFLECTIONS 2024-25 Theme: “Accepting Imperfection”.
If your child is interested in participating in the Reflections cultural arts program, you’ll find some resources below. Your PTA/PTSA will be able to access many more materials to plan for a successful and rewarding program for students in Illinois PTA Leadership Resources (password protected).
The PTA Reflections program provides opportunities for recognition which can boost student confidence and access to the arts improves focus. Visual and performing arts naturally align with established Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) goals.
Each year, over 300,000 students in Pre-K through Grade 12 nationwide create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme. Entering its 56th year, this program helps them explore their own thoughts, feelings, and ideas, develop artistic literacy, increase confidence, and find a love for learning that will help them become more successful in school and in life.
Students submit their completed works of art in one or more of the arts categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, Visual Arts. They participate in their grade division: Primary (Pre-K – Grade 2), Intermediate (Grades 3-5), Middle School (Grades 6-8), High School (Grades 9-12), Accessible Arts (All grades welcome). Students who identify as having a disability and may receive services under IDEA or ADA: Section 504 may enter in the Accessible Arts Division or grade division most closely aligned to their functional abilities.
