Bill > SCR51

This concurrent resolution designates April 2025 as the "Month of the Military Child" in Delaware, recognizing the significant challenges and contributions of children from military families. The resolution highlights that approximately 2,300 military-connected students were reported in Delaware public schools for the 2024-2025 school year, and acknowledges the state's commitment to supporting these children through various initiatives such as participating in the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children (MIC3) and encouraging schools to earn the Purple Star School designation for being military-friendly. The resolution emphasizes the sacrifices made by military children, including dealing with prolonged and repeated absences of parents or family members, and calls on all citizens, businesses, educators, and government leaders to observe the month by honoring and supporting these resilient young individuals who play a crucial role in supporting their family members serving in the Armed Forces, National Guard, and Reserves.
