Support Team helps military families navigate unique challenges

By Becky Ginos

FARMINGTON—It can be tough for children in a military family to fit in and get the support they need when they’re moving from place to place and constantly trying to make new friends while keeping up with school work. The Davis School District has formed the Military Support Team to help families make those transitions. April is Month of the Military Child, a time for the community to come together and support them.
