Military Family Survey

Purple Up!


April is The Month of the Military Child. As a Purple Star School, we invite you to Purple Up! with us as we celebrate our military-connected active duty students from April 14th-17th. 


Why purple? The color purple was chosen because it symbolizes all branches of the military; it is a combination of Army green, Marine Corps scarlet, and Coast Guard, Air Force, and Navy blue. We will be hosting various events throughout the week, we will recognize the various branches of our military within our school, as well as run a social media campaign to raise awareness. Join us in celebrating these brave military kids, as they serve too!

Join us in supporting our St. Louis alumni at the Spring production of Guys and Dolls. Catch the show on April 4, 5, 11, and 12 at 7 PM, or April 6 at 2 PM, in the Garwood Whaley Auditorium at Bishop Ireton High School.
