Military Family Resources
The Indian River Central School District and Fort Drum have had a special relationship reaching back many decades, and the Indian River community honors and respects the sacrifices and resilience our military families embody.
Our military families are a special part of the Indian River community—who we are, where we have been, and where we are going. Our students may come to us from all across the world, but when they leave, it is our hope that they take that IRCSD Pride with them and cherish the memories they make here.
On this page we have gathered many helpful and informative resources for our military families.
