School Liaison Program (SLP)
2034 Barnett Ave., 703.784.4729, [email protected]
The SLP is a great resource for military families with children in grades K-12. This program assists military families with
information and resources on Virginia K-12 education. In addition to family services, the SLP collaborates with different
schools in the area to support their mission of educating both military and civilian students.
SLP also works closely with the Virginia Department of Education to improve policies affecting the education and
graduation rates of incoming military students. The Quantico School Liaison Program services families with students
attending Quantico Base Schools, Fredericksburg City, Spotsylvania County, Stafford County, and Prince William County
schools.
PARTNERS IN EDUCATION (PIE) - VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
The PIE Program (formerly called Adopt a School Program) is an initiative that enhances the connections between the
military, schools and the civilian community, and helps military children succeed in school, be better prepared for the
future, and fit in their local community. Working as a team, educators, and military professionals can provide the most
precious resource; an enriching education experience for mobile military children. This joint effort becomes a “win-win”
situation for both parties, with the ultimate winner being the military children. If you are interested in volunteering for local
school events, please sign up for various volunteer opportunities in Volgistics at www.volgistics.com.
