6. What organizations are supporting military student data identifier?
There is robust list of national organizations supporting the initiative to include educators and military organizations.
Eileen Huck, Deputy Director of Government Relations for National Military Family Association, says supporting the initiative is important to future of military connected children.
“We support the military student identifier. We know intuitively that the challenges of military life like frequent moves and repeated deployments must affect military children. However, right now there’s no data to tell us whether or how the military lifestyle affects kids’ academic achievement. The student identifier would allow us to get that data about military students as a group and allow resources to be directed more effectively to support military kids in school.”
