Nevada is a member of The Military Interstate Children’s Compact
Nevada is a member of The Military Interstate Children’s Compact Commission (MIC3) that provides consistency for transitioning military students and supports uniform treatment for military-connected students as they transfer between school districts and member states. Families can find more information in the MIC3 Guide for Parents and Schools.
All school year our principal, Keith Boone, selects students to help raise the flag with him every morning. He talks to students about the importance of flags, etc.
In honor of Veteran's Day, E.C. Best Elementary School welcomed current military family members to join them for the pledge of allegiance and a flag ceremony!
