Week of: 1/14 – 1/20
Snow Day
Friday’s snow day and the celebration of Martin Luther King Day on Monday has given students at RJSHS a four day break. The break comes at an excellent time as to allow for students, faculty and families a break from the flu season that often takes a hold this time of year. The Snow Day missed this past Friday will be made up on March 30th.
MLK Day Celebration and March
Weather
interrupted the planned MLK March this past Friday in downtown Russellville.
Before being canceled, RJSHS Juniors, as part of their US History studies were
going to have the opportunity to march in honor of the Civil Rights Movement as
well as the teachings of Dr. King alongside students from Logan Co. Schools.
Through the diligent efforts of Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Neblett, the event was designed to expose the youth of the
Logan Co./Russellville area to many of the important changes that Dr. King and
the Civil Rights Movement brought to our country.
