Chantilly Awarded Purple Star Designation
It is with great pleasure we announce the Virginia Council on the Educational Opportunity for Military Children has approved Chantilly High School as a recipient of the SY 2024-2025 Purple Star Award. This award designation is valid for a period of three school years beginning with this school year 2024-2025.
Schools receiving their first Purple Star Award will receive the coveted Purple Star Award challenge coin. This coin is our nod to the military community that is known for the practice of bestowing unit coins to those who have contributed to the mission. More about the history of the challenge coin can be found at The Challenge Coin Tradition: Do You Know How It Started? U.S. Department of Defense .
We are honored to be recognized as a welcoming and supportive place, especially for our military connected students.
