Big Walnut Purple Star Families

Welcome to our page dedicated to our Purple Star Families

At BWI we are committed to seeking out our military connected families and assisting those families as needed. Mr. Mike Wion and Mrs. Danielle Lyons are our building contacts. Should an immediate family member currently be serving in the military, please let us know. You can reach out directly through email at [email protected] or [email protected] or call the BWI office at (740) 965-7800. We have several events each year to bring our military connected families together. Please check this website and weekly newsletters for additional information on those events.

Are you a military member that has a new student in the district or has not yet identified? Click on the link below to enter your information. Your student's teachers will be notified and you will be included in future communication to Big Walnut's Military Families.
