Resources for Educators

Military-connected students bring unique strengths to our classrooms, including resilience, adaptability, leadership, and a global perspective. At the same time, they may experience challenges that differ from those of many of their peers, such as frequent moves, transitions between schools, parental deployments, extended family separations, or adjusting to a parent returning home after service.

At Oxford Area School District, we are committed to equipping our educators with the knowledge and resources needed to understand these unique experiences and provide meaningful support. By recognizing the social, emotional, and academic impacts of military life, our teachers and staff can foster strong relationships, create welcoming learning environments, and help ensure every military-connected student feels a sense of belonging. Together, we honor the service of our military families by supporting the success and well-being of the students they entrust to our schools.

Included in this section we offer military affiliated educator resources: Information and Resources for Parents and Educators on the NSWCPD STEM Outreach Program, Information on the MIC3 Compact, PA Department of Military Family Resources, as well as Key Terms and Acronyms commonly used.
