All Spencer-Owen Schools Earn Prestigious Purple Star Designation!
We are honored to announce that ALL six of our schools at Spencer-Owen Community School Corporation have been awarded the Indiana Purple Star Designation, recognizing our deep commitment to supporting service members, veterans, and the military families who call our community home.
This prestigious designation highlights our efforts to ensure that military-connected students and families receive the support and resources they need to thrive in our schools. To earn the Purple Star, we’ve established key initiatives including:
A dedicated Point of Contact (POC) for military families
Specialized training for POC to better support our military-connected students
A webpage to connect families with resources
Hosting an annual military recognition program
Creating a public military display to honor those who serve
Providing job interview opportunities for military service members and their families
We are proud to provide a welcoming, supportive environment for the brave men and women who protect our country and their families. This designation serves as a testament to the strength and resilience of our military families, and we remain committed to serving them every day.
Thank you to all who have served, and continue to serve. You are heroes, and we are privileged to stand by you!
