OVERVIEW
The district's Military Education Coordinator (DMEC) is established per Arkansas Code, Title 6, Chapter 28, Subchapter 1, section 116.
While Arkansas schools are required to report our numbers of military families to DESE, there is no mandate for military families to identify themselves. Therefore, we use any information shared in a professional manner with respect to your family's privacy.
If you are a military family and are willing to help us know more about you, we will use that information to serve our students and their families more effectively.
DMEC'S RESPONSIBILITIES
The Arkansas Code establishes the following responsibilities for the DMEC:
Serve as the primary point of contact for children of military families and their parents or guardians in your district.
Have specialized knowledge regarding the educational needs of children of military families and the obstacles they face in obtaining an education.
Be included in the establishment and adoption of your district and building level engagement plans.
