Junior Student 2 Student (JS2S) and Student 2 Student (S2S) programs are available in middle and high schools to help ease the stress that
students often feel when they are new to a school and community. Student representatives help new students to find their way around
campus and to become familiar with the community and culture. New students are also invited to monthly get-togethers with JS2S and S2S
team members where they play games, have snacks, and become better acquainted. Although the programs were designed by the Military
Child Education Coalition to meet the needs of military students, the program is also open for civilian students who are new to the area.
