On Memorial Day, we take a collective step back in America to remember the brave men and women who died defending our country. As one who researches and writes about education policy, I'd like to take the past holiday as a chance to discuss how the most important people in the lives of our brave military fare in school. This topic hits close to home for me, as I have four brothers who have previously or are actively serving in the military who, with their spouses, have had to navigate schooling decisions for their kids – my nieces and nephew – in the context of all military life entails, including transfers to remote locales, temporary reassignments and deployments
