Military Families

At Redeemer Lutheran School, we have a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by children of military families when transitioning to a new school due to a parent’s change in duty station. We are aware of the difficulties that military children encounter, including disruptions in curriculum, varying graduation requirements, and the social and emotional challenges of leaving behind familiar friends and activities. To assist with transition planning, we have provided online forms for application documents, enrollment, registration, and other essential school information.

Month of the Military Child
April is the Month of the Military Child, a time to recognize the contributions and sacrifices of military children and their families. In addition to recognizing our military children and making our students aware of the types of sacrifices our military members make, each child is given a dandelion, the official emblem of the military, and a copy of the dandelion poem.

Patriot Day Service
On September 11 each year, we hold a special service where our elementary students showcase a selection of patriotic songs to honor the courage and sacrifice of the heroes of that day. Each child is encouraged to invite a patriot in their life to join us for the service, followed by a reception that will feature refreshments.

The Anchored4Life program is the place where connections happen. It is a peer-to-peer club to connect youth while building transition and resiliency skills. The program provides opportunities for peers to enhance social skills, learn leadership skills, build character, improve self-esteem, and integrate into their community.

New incoming military students are assigned a fellow military peer “buddy” to help support their transition to our school. Learn more on the Anchored4Life website.
