this Wednesday!!!

Join us in supporting military-connected students and families by wearing purple on Wednesday, April 15 💜

Purple represents all branches of the military—active duty, National Guard, and Reserve—coming together as one.

Military children face unique challenges and make meaningful sacrifices. As a community, we can take a moment to recognize their strength and resilience.
