"This designated smoking area was used back on the 70's and 80's. RHS is a tobacco free school and has the highest standards and a no tolerance policy. The area may still be there but I can guarantee that it is not intended for that!"

"Average is what Russell has become under the leadership of the current Superintendent and board memebers. If you have been keeping up with the news lately you know what I am talking about."

"The school is horrible. It has a designated tobacco use area which I think is disgraceful . The kids and the teachers have no respect for others."

"Russell High School offers a vast variety of choices for our youth. Academic teams are fantastic and are top of the line in the state. Music, Dance and Theater are offered also and are intertaining. The Red Devils are probably known for their Sports teams and continue to excell in their respective programs. I am proud to say that I have two children in the school sysytem and Russell is number one!"

"We moved into this area three years ago. Our daughter's first full school year was 7th grade in RMS. She had a terrible experience!! The children were clickish and hard to get to know. She was made to feel like and outsider. Some of the teachers she had were rude to her and made themselves unavalilable to us. This was until they received and unexpected visit from one of us. Only after that visit and some very STRESSFUL times for our child did she receive what she needed. But by this time it was too late. They had already done enough damage to her confidence in herself. As for the High School, she is now a Freshman and she loves it. The teachers and administration at the High School treat the students as young adults and understand that the students are maturing into our future and are always ready to help."
