The categories include Literature, Photography, Visual Arts, 3D Visual Arts, Music Composition, Film Production, and Dance Choreography. You are awarded medals in your categories depending on your performance, and it is possible to go all the way up to national level and win a $100 prize! You can earn community service hours in the PTSA, but it all depends on the event. There are many benefits to joining the PTSA, and it only costs a minimum of $10!
