The Bullitt County Board of Education and the administration at Hebron Middle School have notice a sharp rise (15%) in suspensions, truancy, drug-related incidents in the school and in the community during the 2017-2018 School Year. The administration at Hebron Middle School asked local local law enforcement, Youth Services Center and the Bullitt County Extension Service to conduct Truth or Consequences for the 8th graders at Hebron Middle School in Shepherdsville.  

Truth or Consequences is a community-oriented program that includes local law enforcement, hospitals, substance abuse/treatment centers that participate in a 3 rotation event that includes:

-Youth are given a scenario about a problem that could include drunk driving, stealing prescriptions and substance abuse.

-A panel of people who have been influenced because of addiction

-A Video showing the impact on our decision was also given.

Out of the 195 8th grade youth participating, 176 said they learned from their experience.
