I would like to take the time and thank each and every person that makes our district a great place to live, work, and learn. You provide support and education to ALL of the kids that walk through the doors each day. I appreciate all that you do for RISD!

Positives across the district……….. Russell Primary School (From the desk of Mr. Cassity) We had an awesome week at RPS. Students and staff participated in our Christmas themed days all week. Students shopped for their families at the Penguin Patch. We had a great turn out for our Festival of Trees, which included a performance by Pre-k, a craft center, hot cocoa and cookies, and a visit with Santa (students were also able to write letters to Santa) The trees were silent auctioned with the proceeds going to PTA and all the many school activities/programs they help to support!! Congrats to our Chick-fil-a Students and Staff of the Month! Russell-McDowell Intermediate (From the desk of Mrs. Wright)
Russell Middle School (From the desk of Mr. Moore)
Russell High School (From the desk of Mrs. Chaffin)
Russell Area Technology Center (From the desk of Mr. Trimble) Students from our health sciences pathway had an awesome opportunity to demonstrate their skills during the regional HOSA meeting on Tuesday. The really great thing about this competition is that they are demonstrating their knowledge through written and hands-on activities to future employers and college instructors. As a career and technical center, it is our role not only to teach students the content we are assigned, but also to put them in a position to be successful in their future careers. What better way to do this than to allow our students to demonstrate their knowledge in front of those prospective employers from here in this community and throughout the region?! We appreciate Ms. Layne and all of those educators who take great pride in both teaching their course content and providing opportunities that help our students plan and achieve their path to success. The results from this conference were:
Russell Preschool (From the desk of Mrs. Staton) What an exciting week of holiday cheer as we celebrated Christmas Spirit Week!!
