Reading on the Rise!

Russellville Jr./Sr. HS has made it abundantly clear that reading is a big deal at both the Middle and High schools. The Middle School has recently adapted the Accelerated Reader program and the competition for top class in terms of AR points earned is underway. The 7^th Grade took the midterm honors for the 2^nd quarter and enjoys the fruits of a rewards day on Friday.

Panthers Visit WKU

More than 20 RHS students traveled to WKU to get a taste of college life.

Russellville JROTC Honor Veterans and Recruits 8^th Graders

This past Friday, the Russellville JROTC, in conjunction with Logan County JROTC, participated in a ceremony honoring local Veterans. The two schools, which form a single JROTC unit, presented arms and displayed several of their formational designs. In addition to this, through the efforts of RHS JROTC’s own Noah Brown, an effort to get 8^th graders involved has come to realization. Started last month, 8^th Graders interested in participating in JROTC are now able to travel to LCHS with the RHS JROTC students once each month to participate in drill work, formational expectations, and become generally inundated to the JROTC program.
