A letter for Military Families,

Thank you for visiting this page and welcome!  This is a great resource for military families who are in transition to Fairchild AFB and need information regarding one of our great schools.

      'Reintegration' is a term that describes what military children go through when they relocate to new communities and schools, and when parents deploy or return home from a long assignment.  It can change roles in the family structure, routines, relationships, and behavior which can inevitably lead to disruptions socially and academically in school.  The Medical Lake School District is implementing new and useful strategies and practices to become a more supportive school district for our military youth. 

      I am the new military family advocate for Medical Lake School District.  My role is to increase our communication efforts with Fairchild and our military families, act as an on-base presence to represent the school district, create programs and practices to help provide support systems for our military students dealing with 'reintegration', and an overall school district representative for military families.  

I will work closely with you...the military families, as well as:

  • Military and Family Life Counselors
  • Airman and Family Readiness Center
  • School Liaison Program Manager
  • Force Support Squadron
  • Key Spouses
  • Military Child Education Coalition
  • Military Impacted Schools Association and more. 

       The goal is to enhance our relationship with the base, with military families and students, and our school district as a whole.

Should you have questions about extracurricular activities, tutoring options or anything similar, feel free to contact me at any time. My email address is [email protected].

If you have questions, we are here for you. 

 

Thank you,
