Opportunities to make connections with friends, the band program, and AP class availability have been the best aspects of my experience.

As a senior that has just graduated and came from a smaller school district, Russellville is certainly overwhelming at times but one of the places with the best opportunities to offer. While the school board has had its struggles the administration and staff do the best they can for each student.
