About Us

RES Mission:

The Rumney School Board, Russell Elementary School Administration, and Staff are committed to providing a safe and comfortable atmosphere in which children can learn. This includes showing respect for one another and the school facility, encouraging a sense of self-responsibility and taking pride in working to the best of one’s ability.

Within this environment, we also are committed to:

• Developing each student’s full academic potential;

• Cultivating good character, citizenship, and self-reliance;

• Helping students to build positive self-esteem and desire to become lifelong learners;

• Encouraging collaboration among staff to provide learning experiences relevant to all students’ needs;

• Implementing curriculum in ways which will motivate and challenge students to learn;

• Involving students in programs that promote healthful living;

• Establishing a school and community partnership.
