On April 10th, our Librarian and Military Liaison Mrs. Gatzke traveled to Montgomery to attend the Alabama State Board of Education Meeting and receive Ridgecrest’s Purple Star banner!
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. The Purple Star Award recognizes schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military. Schools that earn the award will receive a special Purple Star School recognition to display on site.
We are so proud to be a Purple Star school that supports our military connected students!
