Military-Connected Families
Liberty is proud to be a Purple Star School!
As a Purple Star School, we are committed to supporting the unique educational and social-emotional needs of military-connected children. The Purple Star School Program was designed to help mitigate the challenges of high mobility by setting standards and publicly designating military-friendly schools. The Purple Star Award recognizes schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military.
Student 2 Student Program
Journey has a Student 2 Student (S2S) program. S2S is a student program that brings military and civilian students together to welcome new students, create a positive environment, support academic excellence, and ease transitions. S2S is a Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC) Initiative.
Check out more about our S2S program on our S2S page!
