Collaborating During Changes and Transitions for Military Students
Webinar Series, Part 4 of 4
Approximately 80-90% of school-aged children in military families attend school in their local school district. Students and their families face unique circumstances related to military service and individual educational needs. A variety of education and family support professionals exist on the military installation and within local schools and communities to provide tailored support for a student or family’s specific needs. To do that successfully, these professionals must communicate, collaborate, and engage with one another, students, and families.
This webinar series will focus on the skills needed by professionals working with military- connected students ages 5-22 and their families to successfully collaborate with one another, engage with families, and leverage military and civilian community resources to support each family and their individual needs.

This session outlines the various school-based changes that may occur over time for students and their families. The transitions between schools, communities, and adulthood all have unique challenges. This session provides strategies to assist with varying transitions and how collaboration is critical throughout the transition for decreased service disruption.
In this webinar we will:
- Review the differing types of transitions and how those moments may impact student services.
- Share strategies for improving collaboration before, during, and after transitions.
- Consider upcoming transitions and begin identifying key collaborators.
