Haywood County Family Resource Centers

 

Location#1 Anderson Campus

Truly a Gem in Haywood County! The mission of the Family Resource Center (FRC) is to involve parents in their children's education by offering fun, educational materials..... and best of all it's FREE and it's available to all Haywood County Residents. It works just like a library you check out up to 6 books or educational materials and return them the next week. You don't even have to have a kid in the Haywood County School System to participate, so if you homeschool or have a young one that's not school age yet, this place is for you.

The Family Resource Center has been in operation for over 17 years. Peggy Jackson was instrumental in getting the project growing, and now they have two locations serving Haywood County! UT Extension,  Haywood County & the Haywood County School System teamed up to create this awesome playground of educational materials.

Educational Materials include: books,  puzzles, movies, internet usage & Practice Classroom worksheets.
