🌟 Purple Up! For Military Kids – November 12
Join us as we celebrate and honor the strength, sacrifice, and resilience of our military families and students!
On Tuesday, November 12, we’re asking all students and staff to wear purple to show support for our nation’s military children.
Purple symbolizes the combined colors of all branches of the military — Army green, Coast Guard blue, Air Force blue, Marine red, and Navy blue — representing unity and support for all who serve.
Military kids face unique challenges such as frequent moves, long separations, and new schools, yet they continue to shine with courage and strength. Let’s come together as a school community to thank them and their families for their dedication and sacrifices.
💜 Wear Purple. Show Support. Honor Our Heroes.
Hope Valley Elementary will be celebrating the diverse cultures of our school and community on November 13 from 5:00-7:00 pm!
We have many opportunities for family involvement:
- bring a traditional food from your culture's cuisine to share
- present and explain special artifacts, handicrafts or heirlooms
- present performance art from your culture
If the United States has always been your home, but your family has spent time in other countries or has special connections to another culture, we welcome your participation as well!
Come and share your family's culture and experiences with us!
