This designation shows that we are a military-friendly school district and have specifically trained our staff to understand, help transition, and support our military students. To receive the award, school districts must successfully address the educational, social, and emotional barriers that students may experience when their parents/guardians are deployed or when relocating and transferring to a different school. School districts must also demonstrate a commitment to military-connected families and students by providing students with the tools and supports needed for success in their education and in their futures—whether they pursue postsecondary education, military involvement, or other careers.

Relocating to a new community and starting fresh at a new school can be stressful. Our goal is to ease your transition into or out of our district by supporting the unique needs of your military family.  Peninsula School District recognizes that Military Families face unique challenges, and our district strives to do all that is possible to help our students and their families throughout the school year.   

Upcoming Events for Military Families: 

We have a number of events throughout the year!

-April  Month of the Military Child
The School Board will be recognizing our military students at the April 21 meeting. The meeting will begin at 6:00 pm, and the resolution will be read at approximately 6:15 pm. Families are welcome to attend to hear the resolution and take a photo with the School Board afterwards. You are not required to stay for the entire meeting.
