This morning, our kids were able to meet with Perry Thomas, KAEE Program Director to celebrate our Gold Status. Beyond reflecting on what we’d done, we also discussed our goals for 2026-2027.

Looking forward to the next big thing we do as a Kentucky Green School! 🌱👀

The Russell High School Conservation Club is proud to share that we have been recognized as a Gold-Level Kentucky Green School by the Kentucky Association for Environmental Education. 🏆🌱

Throughout the year, our students conducted investigations and completed action projects across five key focus areas: water, energy, waste & recycling, school environment, and school site. This accomplishment is especially meaningful as it marks our very first year participating in the Green Schools program. Even more impressive, Russell High School is the first school to successfully complete all requirements for Gold certification within a single year.
