Deployment Support:
Yellow Ribbons: We invite the service member to the school to tie a ribbon on a tree before deploying and to remove the ribbon upon their return. The child’s entire homeroom class takes part in this brief but meaningful ceremony. Please contact the CYB-MFLC at the number listed above if you have an upcoming deployment.
Deployment Group: This takes place once a week from 8:00-8:25 (before the start of classroom instruction). Children who participate in Deployment Group must have a signed consent form* to work with the CYB-MFLC.
Anchored 4 Life support (see below).
Moving Support:
Individual and/or group support prior to the move (with a signed consent form* to work with the CYB-MFLC).

Lunch Bunch:
This is for every military student who has a signed consent form to work with the School CYB-MFLC. Lunch Bunch takes place once a week during your child’s regularly scheduled lunchtime. This is a chance for your child to connect with other military kids in their same grade level
Anchored 4 Life:
A peer-to-peer club to connect youth while building change and resiliency skills. Please see the following link for more information on this resource: https://anchored4life.com/
Veterans Day Recognition:
Flag Raising: Stockton holds a flag raising ceremony every November dedicated to honoring Veterans. Family members with current or former military service are invited and encouraged to attend.
Classroom lessons and activities: Teachers are given the opportunity to host a lesson and activity on Veterans Day with their homerooms.
Month of the Military Child:
April is the Month of the Military Child, and Stockton celebrates the kids in various ways throughout the month. Two consistent celebrations for this month include:
Purple Up Day: Purple is the color of the military child, and Stockton designates a day to encourage all students and staff to dress in purple.
PTA-Sponsored Doughnut Breakfast for Military Kids.
Service Projects Connecting the Student Body to Military-Connected Personnel:
Anchored 4 Life hosts December holiday card-making workshops for Veterans at the VA Hospital.
