Introduction to the Military Child Education Coalition

The Military Child Education Coalition delivers programs, services, and professional development to meet the needs of military-connected students, parents, and professionals.  Parent to Parent™ provides informative and interactive parent workshops to groups and organizations in the local community that address academic, social, and emotional issues associated with a military family lifestyle. Student 2 Student® (S2S™) programs at the elementary (eS2S™), middle (JS2S™), and high school (S2S™) levels bring military and civilian kids together to welcome new students, support academic excellence, and ease transitions as students pass in or out of schools. MCEC believes in the importance of professionals possessing the knowledge necessary to identify and respond to complex needs of military and veteran-connected children across disciplines such as education, healthcare, childcare, and business. MCEC trains professionals to address the unique challenges facing our military children. All training is grounded in research and presented by highly skilled instructors. Military Student Transition Consultant, a highly specialized education professional embedded within the school district, is dedicated to supporting military connected students who works directly with children, parents, and school personnel.
