RHS holds open house

Russellville High School will be hosting a second open house to spotlight the school’s new addition.
The open house event will be held Aug. 30 from 5-7 p.m.
Russellville City Schools held an initial grand opening for the public to view the new addition to RHS the morning of July 25. With this second event being offered in the evening, RCS hopes to see lots of community members and supporters who weren’t able to attend the first event!

The new addition will house all of the administrative offices and meeting spaces, the special education department, the Spanish and English as a Second Language classes, art and all of science department classes, including two new science labs for biology and chemistry.  

The south corridor has special doors that can be closed off to serve as a tornado shelter.  The doors and walls are reinforced steel, made to withstand 250 mile per hour winds.

The system broke ground on the project in October 2020.
