Mechanicsburg Exempted Village School Earns Prestigious Purple Star Designation for Class of 2025
The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce has officially renewed Mechanicsburg Exempted Village School’s status as a Purple Star School, recognizing its ongoing commitment to supporting military-connected students and their families.
The Purple Star designation, for the Class of 2025, is awarded to schools that meet rigorous criteria set by Ohio’s Purple Star Advisory Board. These standards focus on ensuring that military-connected youth receive the support they need—academically, socially, and emotionally—especially during times of school transition and deployment.
We are proud to once again receive this meaningful recognition. Our staff is deeply committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for military families, and this designation is a testament to that ongoing dedication.
Ohio’s military-connected students often face unique challenges, including frequent moves and periods of parental deployment. The Purple Star School Award acknowledges schools that go above and beyond to provide stability, resources, and understanding during these times.
Mechanicsburg Exempted Village School will retain its Purple Star status for the next three years and will be eligible to reapply for the Class of 2028 in the fall of 2027.

Our 4th Graders Hard at Work!
Our 4th-grade students were hard at work researching and crafting hands-on landform projects. Each student has been diving deep into the world of geography, exploring various landforms like mountains, valleys, deserts, and more. With creativity and dedication, they're building models, creating detailed reports, and sharing their newfound knowledge. It's amazing to see their enthusiasm as they bring these natural wonders to life.
It's going to be a great Sunday in the Burg! Good luck to all our students competing and performing today!!
