  • Project Connect

    Project Connect builds a path of support for students from active duty military families in grades 7 through 12. The program is funded by a Department of Defense Educational Activity (DODEA) invitational grant to the Î÷Ê©Ö±²¥APP School District.

    The effort is directed to the academic, social and emotional needs that come from being a part of the military culture due to frequent transition, mobility and deployment. The project focuses on ASD's two high schools and two middle schools with the highest populations of military connected students (Bartlett and Eagle River High Schools and Central and Gruening Middle Schools).
