Family Liaison

Mission and Background

The Family Liaison Program is a Loudoun County Public Schools program which began as a pilot in 1996-1997. The mission of the Family Liaison Program is to empower parents by assisting with communication between school, home, and the local community to positively influence student achievement.

What is a Family Liaison?

A Family Liaison is a staff member who works to bridge the communication between school and home by helping parents get the information, help, and support they need to ensure their child’s academic and social success at school. We strive to make sure that each and every student has the necessary resources to help them achieve their best. In this ever-changing economic climate, sometimes we find ourselves in need of outside resources and assistance. The Family Liaison is here to help share the many available resources that our community provides.

The primary role of the Family Liaison is to empower parents/families to become active participants in the education of their children in three ways:

  • Access to school information, resources, and opportunities for engagement

  • Access and education of school-issued technology and learning management systems

  • Education and resources to become an independent member of their community in order to further support their child’s education
