Month Of The Military Child Proclamation

Join Cabot Public Schools by wearing purple as a tangible way to show support and thanks to all military children.

In l986 Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger designated each April as “The Month of the Military Child”.

Recognizing the contribution that the military child makes as their parent or parents serve our nation, it is during April of each year that all branches of services provide special days and events to honor the family and their children.
 
Purple is the color that symbolizes all branches of the military, a combination of Army green, Coast Guard blue, Air Force blue, Marine red and Navy blue.  We hope everyone will take this opportunity to appreciate and celebrate these young heroes and make it possible for military kids to visually witness the support of their community.
