The Blue & Purple Star Lancers


Our Mission: Connect & Support

Note: Photos are from the pre-pandemic years.

The mission of the Blue and Purple Star Lancers is "connect & support".

Purple Star Lancers are students with a parent or stepparent actively serving in the military (National Guard, Reserves or active duty). As Purple Stars, they have the opportunity to connect with and support each other through regular Purple Star after-school drop-in gatherings.

Blue Star Lancers are students dedicated to supporting our troops and their families-meet regularly and ally with the Purple Stars to accomplish the following:

  • maintain the Lancer Military Memorial Garden (located just off the main lobby for LHS)

  • honor our veterans on staff and in the community with a Veterans Day ceremony, cards, and gift baskets/bags

  • recognize Military Family Appreciation Month in November

  • send "care packages" to members of our Lancer family who are actively serving in the military

  • participate in national Purple-Up! month , a nationwide campaign aimed at raising awareness of the challenges a military child faces

  • honor seniors entering military service/military academy/ROTC program with "Blue Star Bundles" (commemorative "care packages") presented at the spring pep rally

  • conduct a Memorial Day Ceremony in the Lancer Military Memorial Garden.
