KHS Receives Purple Star Designation
This week, the Ohio Department of Education announced that Kings High School has received the Purple Star designation and is a member of the Purple Star Class of 2024. This year's class includes 171 schools from across the state.
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 recognition to display on site.
A school is honored with a Purple Star if it completes the required activities needed for designation. Ohio is home to 600 active Purple Star schools that dedicate time and support to students in military families.
“Ohio is a leader in its support to military families and the Purple Star program is a wonderful example of how this support extends to children in our schools,” said Governor DeWine. “I applaud Ohio’s Purple Star schools and thank them for supporting military-connected students and ensuring they have the services and learning resources to succeed.”
KHS joins J.F. Burns, who just received their renewal for three more years, Kings Mills, and South Lebanon Elementary as Kings Local School District Purple Star Schools.
Congratulations!
