The School Liaison (SL) provides K-12 information and referral services pertaining to public schools, private schools and homeschooling options. They are also a referral source for the Interstate Compact for Military Children in Nebraska.
The SL helps to connect parents, schools and the military by providing assistance in matters pertaining to K-12 schooling: school options, enrollment and resource referral; educating schools and districts on important issues affecting military children K-12; and keeping the installation, wing and unit commanders informed on all issues affecting the local educational community.
When to Connect with Us
