School Liaisons address the unique educational needs specific to military families. The SLS advocates for the educational needs of military children, and serves as a point of contact for military families seeking assistance with school related K-12 matters. School Liaisons collaborate with the district, and the MSTC, to ensure educational transitions are seamless, and that resources are readily available for families and district personnel.

Military Family Life Counselors

The Department of Defense (DOD) authorized the funding for several full-time Military Family Life Counselors (MFLCs) to serve elementary schools, middle schools and one middle/high school in the tricounty area.

In Berkeley County School District, there are MFLCs at Marrington Elementary School, Marrington Middle School of the Arts and Cane Bay Elementary School.

School MFLCs offer short-term non-medical counseling services to military connected children, parents, faculty, and staff. The MFLC counselors are at the schools to help and are available to talk to military students, facilitate group activities, outreach to parents and to process interactions and concerns, such as:

Communication

Self-esteem/self-confidence

Resolving conflicts

Behavioral management techniques

Bullying

Helping children deal with angry feelings

Sibling/parental relationships

Deployment and reintegration issues

The MFLC program utilizes professional, licensed and credentialed counselors.
