Welcome to Springfield Middle School. We are committed to providing critical transitional support for military-connected students who relocate to our school due to a parent's change in duty station. Our focus is to eliminate barriers to the academic success of military-connected students. We are here to assist and support the military family lifestyle in such areas as school transitions, frequent moves, deployment, and education inconsistencies from state to state, etc. Professional development is provided annually to staff concerning how to identify and respond to the needs of military students and their families.
The Military Family Life Counselor (MFLC) program is designed to provide additional support to our military-connected students by addressing the unique lifestyle of military families. Benefits to our students include easing transitions, meeting other military children who share similar circumstances, learning coping skills, and support through deployments and moving.
