Welcome Military Families
We are thankful to all veterans for their service to our country and to all military families for the sacrifices they make for that service. We stand in support of the military families living in our District, and we take seriously the responsibility of providing unmatched educational opportunities to students of military households while accommodating their unique needs. Every child, every day.
November is Military Veterans and Military Family Appreciation Month
We are proud to recognize the service of all of those who have served and are serving our state and country in the military. November is designated as a time to appreciate Veterans, Service Members, and their families.
Families serve alongside the military members, and we take this opportunity to recognize and thank all of them for their contributions to our freedom and safety. We are providing a variety of resources with ideas for recognizing Veterans, Military Members, and their families.
