SB 1405 Arizona Senate · 56th Legislature - Second Regular Session

purple star school designation; requirements.

This bill establishes the Purple Star School Program in Arizona to identify schools that provide transition support for military students and their families. To qualify, schools must offer professional development training to at least 70% of their staff, designate a point of contact with relevant experience, run a peer mentorship program, hold an annual patriotic event, and maintain a dedicated webpage with resources. Both public and private schools are eligible to apply, and participating schools must submit annual reports detailing their compliance with these requirements. The Department of Education will review these reports and can remove a school from the program if it fails to meet the standards or submit the required documentation.
