School Liaison Information

The School Liaison's (SL) primary function is to serve as a conduit between parents, educators and the command, so military-connected children experience a seamless transition during the transfer between schools. As K-12 education subject matter experts, SLs provide information and resources to support military families as they navigate the challenges of this unique lifestyle – frequent relocations, deployments (planned and unplanned), reintegration, separation, post-secondary planning, special education service coordination and so much more. Additionally, SLs support military parents who are looking for information on homeschooling or other alternative models of education by maintaining professional relationships with installation agencies and community service providers.

The School Liaison Program was established under Child and Youth Education Systems (CYES) and falls under the Child and Youth Programs (CYP) umbrella under the Morale Welfare and Recreation of the US Navy. The SL Program serves all branches and is established throughout the Navy.
