Education - Purple Star Schools Program and Purple Star Colleges Program

Summary

The bill narrows the Purple Star Schools definition of a military‑connected student to dependents of active‑duty or reserve service members (or those killed in the line of duty) and adds a new Purple Star Colleges Program to honor colleges that offer dedicated support for military‑connected students. It affects K‑12 schools, higher‑education institutions, and the Maryland Higher Education Commission, aiming to improve services for students with military ties.
