The Military Interstate Children’s Compact Commission (MIC3) is designed to help children of military families deal with the transition to a new school district due to a parent’s reassignment or deployment. Families must be provided the opportunity to self-report.

Children are eligible under MIC3 if they fall into 1 of 3 categories:

• Child of active duty member
• Child of member who died on active duty
• Child of members or veterans who are medically discharged or retired for 1 year

Families must self-report to the school district. Families may do this at the time of enrollment by answering the optional Military Family questions.
