Lion Heroes Network

Lions Heroes Network

Livingston Independent School District welcomes our military families!  The Lion Heroes Network was created to provide you with valuable information to assist you.  Military-connected children are an enormous resource for our educational community.  From a young age, many have resided in different states or countries, have built resiliency to transitions and hardships, or, similar to their service member ideals, have begun building an admiration of public service.  Livingston ISD strives to support these families in our district, to include service members that are Active Duty, National Guard, Reservists, and Veterans, and offer guidance navigating through community and district-wide resources that meet the needs of military families.

 

Below, you will find links to each campuses’ Military Families resource page that includes helpful information about enrollment and registration, student handbooks, TEA resources, and community information.

Month of the Military Child

April is the Month of the Military Child (MOMC), a special time set aside each year to honor the resilience, courage, and daily sacrifices of military-connected children.  This year, April 10th, 2026, has been designated by TEA and the Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC) as Purple Up! for Military Kids Day.  On this day, we encourage schools, communities, and partners across Texas to wear purple as a visible symbol of support and appreciation for military-connected youth and the significant role they play in their families’ service.

Why purple? Purple represents the combination of colors associated with all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces:

  • Air Force – Blue
  • Army  – Green
  • Navy – Blue
  • Marine Corps – Red
  • Coast Guard – Blue

When these colors come together, they form purple – a unified show of support for all military families.
