When you grow up moving from base to base, you learn very quickly what sacrifice looks like. On this episode of Kids First Radio on 100.7 The Point, Keven Cohen and Brad Henry sit down with special guest Beau Spafford to honor April as the Month of the Military Child. Beau shares his deeply personal journey of growing up in a military household and his own career in service. He knows firsthand the quiet resilience it takes to pack up your life, leave your friends behind, and start over. We talk about the heavy emotional toll of deployments and why creating a consistent, supportive educational environment is one of the most profound ways we can serve the families who serve our country.
How do we build a community that truly has their backs? The conversation explores how the South Carolina Public Charter School District is stepping up as a Purple Star district to provide that exact stability. We discuss the incredible success of Palmetto Scholars Academy at Joint Base Charleston and the exciting potential for bringing similar charter school options to Fort Jackson. When we give parents the peace of mind that their children are safe and thriving, we are building a legacy of gratitude. Tune in to hear how our schools are putting kids first, and remember to wear purple on April 15th to show your support.
