Eglin AFB - School Liaison Officer

The School Liaison Officer is the point of contact between the military installation, school administration, parents and the community as a whole. Primary responsibilities include advising the military command on all matters concerning student education and school operations, fostering a responsive and cooperative relationship between local school districts and the military community, and assisting military families with education matters that are unique to the military lifestyle such as school transitions, frequent moves, deployment, and education inconsistencies that exist from state-to-state. The goal of the School Liaison Officer is to empower parents to be their child’s best advocate in the education process and to help parents navigate the school system and "level the playing field" for military families by ensuring that military children are given the opportunities to achieve their highest potential at any assigned location.
