Congratulations to Landon Hammer and Wes Merrill OVC All-Conference Team!
It’s FRYSC Appreciation Week, folks! Let’s give a standing ovation to the dynamic duo, Becky Roark and Samantha Burney, who are absolute rockstars at making sure kids in the Russell Independent School District get all their needs met!
Our FRYSC center has been established as part of the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA). It is our hope that the Center will address the needs of our community by becoming a bridge between home and school. Our center is here to provide support and assistance to children and families of the Russell Independent community. The goal of the Center is to remove barriers in the way of a child's success in school in becoming productive, educated happy adults.
Wishing Lane Osborne the best of luck as he competes in the wrestling state tournament in Louisville this weekend. The entire Red Devil community is cheering you on! 🤼
