School Liaison Officer’s Message
Dear Marshall Families,
My name is Blanca Felix Guerrero, and I am the Army School Liaison Officer for the Monterey area. Welcome to the new school year! My goal is to ensure your child’s transition to Marshall Elementary (or any school in the area) is as smooth as possible. I understand the unique needs of military families and am here to connect you with resources, programs, and support systems to help your family succeed.
Marshall School and the surrounding community have a variety of services designed specifically to meet the needs of military-connected students and their families. As your School Liaison Officer (SLO), I provide the following:
- Youth Sponsorship Program to help your child connect with peers before and after your move.
- Before and after-school care options through the Porter Youth Center.
- Access to tutoring programs to support academic success.
- Military & Family Life Counselors (MFLC), providing non-medical counseling services.
- Support for families in the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP).
- Specialized meeting times for parents to address academic concerns with educators.
- Assistance in communicating with schools regarding educational issues related to military transitions.
The mission of the Army School Liaison Program is to reduce barriers to academic success, promote parental involvement, and coordinate partnerships between military families and schools. I am here to empower parents with resources and provide tools to overcome challenges related to the military lifestyle.
If you have any questions or would like to meet with me, please feel free to reach out.
I look forward to an exciting and successful school year for all!
