Schools readjust calendars due to snow days

At both the Russellville City and Franklin County school board meetings Thursday, board members voted to approve make-up days for the five school days students missed due to the significant snowfall during the week of January 10-14.

For Russellville City schools the following days will now be student days:

• Monday, Feb. 21 (President’s Day)

• Thursday, March 10 (spring break)

• Friday, March 11 (spring break)

• Thursday, May 26 (former teacher in-service)

• Friday, May 27 (former teacher in-service)
