What is the Family Resource Center? En Español
The Minors Lane Elementary (MLE) Family Resource Center was created as part of the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA) to provide information and/or referrals to families in the MLE community. There are many barriers that can get in the way of a child’s success in school and the center works to ensure that needed resources/support are made available in order to remove obstacles. By working together, the center and families can replace educational barriers with bridges of opportunity and success.
Who operates the Family Resource Center?
The center is operated by a full-time coordinator, Juliana Camacho Simpson (Hablo Español). An Advisory Council made up of parents, community members and school staff also provides guidance in decisions concerning the center.
