Russell County Middle School earned a blue rating for student scores on the reading and math sections of last year’s state assessment.
The blue rating is the highest rating a school can receive from the state, and only about 25 percent of middle schools across the state earned a blue rating for reading and math.
Russell County Middle School Assistant Principal Sarah Aaron was a guest on Community Conversation on WJRS and said school administrators were elated when they learned the school received the blue rating.
Russell County Middle School was one of only 3 middle schools in the Lake Cumberland area to receive a blue rating for reading and math.
