South Carolina is proud to be known as a military-friendly state, serving over 16,000 military-connected students and their families,” said State Superintendent of Education Molly Spearman. “We commend the Beaufort County School District for going above and beyond by putting in place a support system for its military parents and students, and congratulate them on being designated as a Purple Star school district.

Military Purple Star School District requirements include:

  • Assign a designated liaison to be a single point of contact for military families and military-connected students who is trained to support issues that face military families, including relocation, deployment, loss and academic training;
  • Create a website specifically for military families to provide current information about schools and the district;
  • Adhere to the Military Interstate Children’s Compact Commission (MIC3) to ensure that students receive transfer credit from previous schools so they will not have to retake classes;
  • Ensure that transfer students can participate in sports, clubs, and other school enrichment programs; and
  • Provide specialized training for school counselors, staff, and administrators.

The district’s designation ceremony was held Wednesday at the District Office in Beaufort. 

It is our goal to support military children by removing barriers that could inhibit their success academically, socially, or emotionally,” said Rodriguez. “I am grateful to our military families who have entrusted Beaufort County schools with their children’s education, and I extend a heartfelt welcome to those who are new to our area. These individuals are serving our country, and we value the opportunity to serve their families.
