According to the Texas Education Agency, the Purple Star Campus Designation recognizes Texas district and charter schools that show their support and commitment to meeting the unique needs of military-connected students and their families.
The designation is awarded every fall, and to be eligible, campuses must designate a campus-based military liaison; create and maintain an easily accessible webpage that includes information for military-connected students and their families; institute a campus transition program for military-connected students; and support a military family assistance initiative.
According to the TEA, selected campuses will receive a Purple Star recognition to display on campus or on the school website and will have their designation featured on the TxSchools.gov webpage.
