Military Families
Welcome to Choctawhatchee High School. We are committed to providing critical transitional support for military-connected students as they relocate to our school due to a parent's change in duty station. Our focus is to eliminate barriers to the academic success of military-connected students. We are here to assist and support the military family lifestyle in such areas as school transitions, frequent moves, deployment, and education inconsistencies that exist from state to state, along with many others.

Student Transition Program
Student 2 Student is a student outreach club where students help new military students meet friends, become involved in the school culture and adjust to being part of the Choctaw Family.
