Month of the Military Child - Virginia Purple Star Designation Program

As Loudoun County Public School celebrates April as the Month of the Military Child, the Department of Pupil Services wants to recognize Trailside Middle School for being the only LCPS school awarded the Purple Star Designation. The Virginia Purple Star Designation is awarded to military-friendly schools that have demonstrated 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 onsite. Applications for the Purple Star Designation are being accepted from April 1, 2021 until September 21, 2021.
