State education officials on Wednesday announced that five Fairfield-Suisun Unified schools have been designated as 2024 Purple Star Schools, capable of meeting the unique needs of “military-connected” students and their families like the ones living on or near Travis Air Force Base.

In a press statement, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond cited the five local schools, among nearly 40 others statewide, that are “committed and equipped” to serve the children and parents serving in the U.S. armed forces.
