Tenley dances at Stephanie Kemp’s New England Dance Academy in North Attleboro, MA. Along with this national recognition, Tenley will be provided a $200 Young Artist Scholarship, a Silver Medal, and her work will be featured in a virtual exhibition. “The Rehoboth PTSA is thrilled to recognize Tenley and her incredible talent! We are thankful for her and her family's support of this program over the years and encourage young artists in Rehoboth to continue to express their thoughts, feelings, ideas and passions through the arts.” shared Courtenay St. Germain, Rehoboth PTSA President.

Each year through the Reflections program, National PTA and PTAs across the country encourage students of all ages to create and submit original works of art in the medium of their choice that reflect on the annual theme. Submissions are reviewed by arts experts, and students are recognized for their artistic technique and ingenuity in bringing the theme to life. Hundreds of thousands of students in pre-K through grade 12 from across the country and in U.S. schools overseas created original works of art as part of the 2023-2024 Reflections program.
