22 Colorado Schools in Seven School Districts Designated as Purple Star Schools

DENVER ~ In a ceremony held on Tuesday, Governor Jared Polis, State Board of Education Chair Rebecca McClellan, and Colorado Education Commissioner Susana Córdova came together to celebrate the designation of 22 new Purple Star Schools in the state. This recognition is given to public schools that provide specialized services and support to military-connected students and their families.

This is the second year of the Purple Star Schools program, which designates schools and school districts that offer dedicated programs and resources for military-connected students. The designation is valid for three years.

Joining Commissioner Córdova and Governor Polis at the ceremony were representatives from the Military Interstate Children's Compact Commission, as well as military school liaisons from the United States Army, Air Force, and Space Force.

Governor Polis expressed his excitement about the recognition of these 22 Colorado schools as Purple Star Schools. He stated that education is a top priority for his administration and ensuring that military-connected students and families have access to schools that work best for them is crucial in taking care of those who serve our nation in uniform.
