The Military Impacted Schools Association provides workshops for educators to address
deployment and transition issues for military families on the move.
We live in a mobile society. MISA believes that if we do it right for military
families, we will do it right for all families. Everyone has a role to play in building
partnerships to support our military families. By working together—school officials,
parents, military leaders, the Department of Defense, Department of Education, and
commissioners of education—we can provide a continuum of quality education for
military families and do what is right for all children.
Topics covered in the workshops include:
- Helping Make the Connection for Children
- Developing Resilient Students
- Social Emotional Intelligence
- Making the Connection Before they Arrive
- Demographics of Military
- Resources for Educators and Military Families
- SOAR (Student On-line Achievement Resources)
- Military One Source
- Military Online Course
