Russell Springs Elementary School Parents/Guardians & Employees:

I wanted to make you aware of a situation that is occurring close to Russell Springs Elementary School; the police were notified that some individuals were stealing items from the Thomas residence that is to the right of Russell Springs Elementary School.  One of the individuals have not yet been apprehended and has fled the scene on foot.  As a precautionary measure, the school is on a complete lockdown; while we have not been made aware of any threat to Russell Springs Elementary School, we did want to make you aware of this and we will provide updates.  We appreciate law enforcements quick response. 

Thank you.

Michael A. Ford, Superintendent
Russell County Schools
