Month of the Military Child

Wear Purple April 19th

The life of a military kid is a blend of unique adventures and challenges. It’s important to keep in mind that they serve our country too, as part of a military family… not just in April, but all year long. Celebrate the challenges and triumphs of our military-connected children. These amazing kids selflessly sacrifice for our country and are brave, proud, and strong.

Wear purple to celebrate military kids! Purple references the joint environment of the military, encompassing all service branches, Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard, and Veterans. Purple combines each branch’s colors into one: the Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard all use shades of blue, the Army uses green, and the Marines use red. MCEC celebrates Purple Up this year on April 19th.

Personal Responsibility

Panther Families!

Aumsville Panther students started taking a deeper dive into learning about personal responsibility. Throughout this learning adventure, we will continue to explore essential skills such as time management, handling belongings with care, and showing empathy towards others. It's crucial to understand how these skills not only benefit us individually but also contribute to creating a supportive and thriving community.

By learning about personal responsibility, students will discover how to organize their time effectively, take care of their belongings, and approach their school work with care and diligence. Moreover, they will explore the significance of empathy in understanding and supporting peers.

Together, let's embrace the opportunity to help our students grow and become responsible members of the greater community.
