Good Sunday afternoon to all! This has been a very busy week/weekend for our Russellville Panthers!!
The RHS Senior BETA Club traveled to Lexington this past week for the state BETA convention. Below is specific results shared by club sponsor, Mrs. Tanya Mullen:
The Russellville High School Senior Beta Club faired well at the state convention in Lexington January 22-24.
Fernanda Rodriguez placed first in Digital Art.
Kristin Vanzant placed second in Sculpture.
Dilishia Thomas, Madison Morrow and Carleigh Phillips placed 5th in the Club Banner competition.
Living Literature, Robotics and Special Talent made an excellent showing as did those taking academic tests.

I am very proud of the hard work and effort given by our outstanding young men and women. I am also grateful for the much needed assistance from our chaperones: Kelley Paul, Bro. Rodney Skipworth and Jeremy Bivins. These men and women helped to make our students' experience a memorable one!
