Military Family Resources

Welcome to ASFL, the Home of the Rockets!  We are excited to welcome our military families through the Alabama Purple Star School program.  The Purple Star School program established by Legislature with the passage of Act 2021-7, recognizes the efforts of the K-12 schools in the state that are committed and supportive of military students, and their families, as they transition to their new homes and schools. The Purple Star School program was designed to help mitigate the challenges of high mobility by setting standards for and publicly designating military-friendly schools. This award recognizes schools that show a major commitment to military-connected students and families.

The Huntsville City Schools Military Families Webpage is designed to provide information to military families relocating to Huntsville, Alabama. It has links to additional resources and contact information for the Huntsville City Schools military liaison. The district military liaison is identified there with a link to contact information.

The Military Child Website supports all military-connected children by educating, advocating, and collaborating to resolve education challenges associated with the military lifestyle. The site contains a set of resources for students, partners, and education professionals available in multiple formats: videos, webinars, and downloadable documents.
