Purple Star Award District
Welcome to Currituck County Schools - A Purple Star Award District!
North Carolina is home to the 4th largest military population in the United States, including more than 52,000 school-age children of active-duty military, Guard, and Reserve*.
In 2019, The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction launched the Purple Star Award Designation initiative to recognize the state’s strong military presence and its support for military families. The Purple Star designation is awarded to schools that demonstrate military-friendly practices and a commitment to military students and families.
Currituck County Schools is committed to providing help and support to our military and their families, and we are proud to have all ten schools across our district designated as Purple Star Award schools.
