Purple Star School Program

Florida Virtual School is proud to support military families as a Purple Star District.

The Florida Purple Star School of Distinction Designation was established by the Florida legislature in 2021 and its purpose is to recognize schools that support the unique needs of military families, help military-connected students navigate critical challenges and provide resources for military-connected students when transitioning to a new school environment.

Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC) is the national advocate for Purple Star Schools. Learn more about MCEC and the Purple Star School program.
