Military Family Resources

Here at EOC we have resources and activities that our military-connected students may find interesting and applicable to them. 

  • The Patriot Kids Club supports and encourages the academic success of the military child.
    They meet once a month by grade level. Through this club, Eastover-Central Elementary School of Arts provides military students and their families with tools necessary for:

    • An easy transition into a new school environment

    • Familiarity with their new community

    • Networking with other Eastover-Central military students and families

    • Support during deployments

    Professional school counselors are certified/licensed educators with a minimum of a Master’s degree in school counseling making them uniquely qualified to address students’ cognitive, socio-emotional, and career development needs by implementing a comprehensive school counseling program. They also provide consultation, individual and group counseling, and academic advisement. In addition, they provide prevention, crisis intervention, and conflict resolution.
