THE CHILDREN OF A MILITARY PARENT FACE SPECIAL PRESSUES THAT THEIR SCHOOLS CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT AND BOOST THEIR CHANCES FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS.
UNFORTUNATELY, MANY SCHOOLS ARE UNAWARE THAT THEY HAVE STUDENTS UNDERGOING SUCH STRESS OR SIMPLY CHOOSE TO IGNORE THE SITUATION.
THE BLUE STAR FAMILY PLATOON SEEKS TO SHOW SCHOOLS HOW THEY CAN CREATE A WELCOMING ATMOSPHERE FOR THEIR MILITARY CONNECTED KID. AS A STUDENT OR A PARENT OF A STUDENT YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP US GET THIS DONE.
YOU ARE WELCOME TO JOIN OUR VOLUNTEER EFFORT BY CONTACTING BLUESTARFAMILYPLATOON@AOL.COM

Mission Statement
LAN 63 believes in the development of services that focus on the strengths that exist in families and their connections to their community. Our efforts are guided by a strong commitment to the following:
- Co-ordination between agencies, community organizations, and families for the planning and delivery of services. Children and families benefit most when their support network comes together.
- Both the child’s home and community provide the most natural and least restrictive setting for growth and change.
- Parents are key to the success of a child and the LAN seeks their active participation.
- Our families and communities are rich in their differences of culture, race, and religious affiliations. We learn best from families about the supports that they need.
- Children and their families are unique and have the right to have services tailored to their specific needs.
