McComb Elementary, Middle and High School have each been awarded the Purple Star Designation from the Ohio Department of Education.

Purple Star schools show a significant commitment to serving students and families connected to our nation’s armed forces.

“It is an honor to receive this esteemed award,” the school district said.

During the month of April, which is Month of the Military Child, McComb will be recognizing, celebrating, and honoring its military-connected students in the school district and their families in a variety of ways. (events listed below)

The school district says this would not have been possible without the $2,500 Youth Thrive Mini-Grant from the ADAMHS board.

Liberty-Benton High School also earned the designation.
