Purple Star School Supports:
Bountiful Junior High is applying to be a Purple Star School. Purple Star Schools are recognized as leaders in supporting students from military families. Bountiful Junior High has a long history of honoring our veterans and their families. We believe there is no greater sacrifice than that made by military and their families. As a Purple Star School hopeful, we know that students from military families do not always get to have a "typical" school experience due to multiple moves and unique challenges. We recognize these challenges and are working to build programs to provide students from military families with social connection, extra academic support if needed, and an adult(s) in the building who has also lived the life in the military and understands the unique challenges that can bring. Visit the Purple Star Schools website for more information.
In addition to our personal efforts as a school, Davis School District employees a team of professionals who are specifically prepared and trained to support our military families. Please visit the district website for more information on resources available today.
