GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Russellville High School is the only school I have known in regards to my high school education. However, there are aspects that could be improved. For instance, the restroom is nearly always flooded/not clean, and there are code locks on the doors, so if you were to check in or leave the building for any reason, you're stuck outside until classes change. The faculty as RHS is great, I've never had a teacher I didn't like or wasn't willing to do whatever to help me succeed.

Making friends is easy, especially in the right classes. If you and another student both find a similarity High school classes and friendships will feel easier with someone at your side.

What i really like about this school is that it gives you room to grow and the teachers are all mostly extremely sweet and caring and you feel like you can trust most of them and the vibes are great. One thing I would change about it is the schedule and the fact that freshman got to take Spanish I mean I didn't get that privilege and the poor Spanish teachers have their classes overflowing.
