The School Liaison Officer collaborates with other Child, Youth and School Services entities, installation organizations and the local school community to address
educational issues, ensuring the positive educational experience of military children and youth. School Liaison Services can be a valuable resource before you
arrive at Fort Leavenworth, during your stay here, and upon your departure.
Through partnering with the local and military community, the SLO acts as a communication link providing a variety of resources to provide assistance to students in transition.
Ways in which the School Liaison Officer can help you:
- Assist parents in locating points of contact in the community and make referrals as appropriate.
- Assists with developing and implementing school programs to benefit incoming students to faciliate a smooth transition.
- Maintains resource file on post secondary education opportunities.
- Support to home school families.
- Provide information on school options for families making a PCS move; refers families to SLO at gaining installation.
