School Liaison Office
DID YOU KNOW THE AVERAGE MILITARY FAMILY MOVES 6-9 TIMES OVER A 20-YEAR CAREER?
With each move, military children face many school-related challenges. The School Liaison Program is the central point of contact for commanders, military families, and local school systems on school-related matters for grades Pre K-12. We are here to help ease the transition from one school to another (before and after a move) and help with navigating the school systems to ensure our military youth are given the opportunity to achieve their highest potential for academic success at any assigned location.
Our School Liaison can provide information about local school systems, state requirements, immunizations, special education navigation, school policies and procedures, home school resources, deployment resources, scholarship information and so much more!
