What is the South Madison Family Resource Center ?

The South Madison Family Resource Center was created as part of the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA). The Center is another way that Silver Creek and Shannon Johnson communities provide services to enhance the students' ability to succeed in school. Parents and teachers agree that it is extremely difficult for children to be successful in school when they are distracted by problems in their home environment. Our Family Resource Center has been established to assist our children and their families in solving these problems by providing direct services or by linking families with other resources in the surrounding community. The services of the Family Resource Center are available at no cost to all children, parents and families with students who attend Silver Creek and Shannon Johnson Elementary Schools .
