Greetings and salutations! It is my pleasure to introduce myself as Stephanie Montes, the Military Family Liaison at Burges High School. My primary responsibility is to provide support to military-connected students and their parents by connecting them with available resources in both the local and military communities. I serve as the liaison between military-connected students and their families and the campus, working collaboratively to ensure that their unique needs are met.

One of my key roles is to identify military-connected students and ensure they are properly coded through the Texas Student Data System Public Education Information Management System (TSDS PEIMS). Additionally, I work to determine the campus-based support and services available to these students based on their high mobility and unique needs. I also assist in coordinating campus-based programs that are relevant to military-connected students.

As a former active-duty Air Force member, a member of the Georgia Army National Guard, and a military spouse for 21 years, I have gained a wealth of experience in supporting military families. I even had the opportunity to work for DODEA (Department of Defense Education Activity) at Heidelberg Middle School for three years in Germany. My family and I have experienced the challenges of relocating and transitioning to new schools, and I am eager to use my expertise to help other military-connected families navigate these challenges.

I am committed to working with you and your children to ensure they receive the best possible education. As we strive to become a Purple Star Campus, I encourage you to become involved with the school and help us achieve this goal. Please do not hesitate to contact me at school by calling (915) 236-7236 or emailing me at Email Stephanie Montes if you require any assistance. I am always here to help!
