District, School, and Community Stakeholder Perspectives on the Experiences of Military-Connected Students

An exploration of the schooling experiences of military-connected students and their strengths and challenges in civilian public schools was conducted. Research sought out the perspectives of district, school, and community stakeholders in order to better understand the critical perspectives of those charged with developing, administering, and sustaining system-wide initiatives and programs that promote systemic change at the school, community, and district levels. Overall, the study identified school-based strategies that promote emotional, psychological, and academic outcomes among military-connected students.
