School Liaison Program

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. They connect families, communities, and schools and are known as the base education office for K-12. They advocate, advise, and build alliances to help address education concerns/issues of the Total Force and offer a network, to educate and provide information/referral for military families and school districts.

The School Liaison helps ease the transition from one school to another (before and after a move) and helps navigate the school systems to ensure our military youth can achieve their highest academic success potential at any assigned location.

Parents, school personnel, and community members with questions on school-age military child education are encouraged to contact their local School Liaison Program.
