Hi everyone! I'm Ms. Giselle Pokorny. I am fortunate to have worked for the Education and Military communities for 10 years. I am bilingual in English and Spanish. ¡Yo hablo Español! I am so proud to be a military daughter, wife and now mother to an Army soldier.
Please contact me if you need any information about how I can support your military family in school, bring military speakers, presentations, meetings and parent resources on and off post.

EPISD employs Military Family Liaisons at our schools with the highest numbers of military-connected students. Their primary duties include:
- Serving as the point of contact and working collaboratively between military-connected students and their families and the campus;
- Maintaining familiarity with enrollment processes, records transfer, existing community resources, and student supports;
- Ensuring military-connected students are identified and properly coded through the Texas Student Data System Public Education Information Management System (TSDS PEIMS);
- Determining campus-based supports and services available to military-connected students based on their unique needs, including their high mobility;
- Assisting in coordinating campus-based programs relevant to military-connected students
- Attending professional development or training annually to learn and understand topics related to the transition of military-connected students and their families.
