Bringing 25 years of experience working with some of Fayette County’s most vulnerable students and families, Felicia Lindsay took the helm at the Family Care Center in July 2024. Previously, she was assistant principal at Martin Luther King Jr. Academy since 2018.
Lindsay began her journey in Fayette County Public Schools in 1999 as a paraeducator working with students receiving special education services at Southern Elementary School. She later became the Family Resource Center coordinator before moving into the classroom and teaching special education for seven years at Southern. Her experience includes working as a behavior interventionist at William Wells Brown Elementary and PASS (Positive Approach to Student Support) coach at Tates Creek Middle School, where she transitioned into administration as an assistant principal.
