Deployment

Deployment Flyer

Craven County Schools wants to provide support to military students/families experiencing deployment. Please reach out to your child's school and make them aware of your family's deployment status. Without this knowledge, your child may miss out on key support within the educational setting. The school will only know about a deployment upon notification by the family. Contact your child's school today to work proactively in ensuring your child's success.

  • Did you know there is deployment support for your child? In addition to School Counselors and Military Liaisons some CCS Schools have the support of a Military Family Life Counselor (MFLC) to work with students and families experiencing deployment.

  • Did you know that your child's teacher is a great resource for recognizing changes in your child during a time of deployment?  The earlier you notify the school about your future deployment and any special arrangements for care you have made that might be out of the child's normal routine, the more time they have to make sure they are prepared to support you in any way your circumstances may need. 

  • Did you know that your child is allowed deployment-related absences to spend time with military parent pre-deployment or post-deployment/reunification?
    Students of military parents a minimum of two days each academic year for visitation with the student’s parent or legal guardian if the student is not identified as at risk of academic failure because of unexcused absences and the student’s parent or legal guardian (a) is an active duty member of the uniformed services as defined by policy 4050, Children of Military Families, and (b) has been called to duty for, is on leave from, or has immediately returned from deployment to a combat zone or combat support posting.

  • Remember that your child's school depends on you to communicate about an upcoming deployment.
