Are the schools for school-aged children located on or off post?
: There are seven schools located on Fort Meade that accommodate children from kindergarten through 12th grade and fall under the jurisdiction of the Anne Arundel County Public School System. There are additional feeder schools located off post to accommodate additional elementary school aged children. In conjunction with the Child and Youth Services Division, a School Liaison Officer has been established on Fort Meade. The School Liaison Officer (SLO) acts as a communication link between the installation and the surrounding school districts. The SLO advocates for military families in a variety of areas within the school system to include home school and special needs children. For more information about schools and the liaison services offered, call (301) 677-1227, or visit their Web site at: http://ftmeademwr.com/cys/slo.htm.
