Our Superintendent

Message from Superintendent Russell

 

Dear East Tallahatchie Community,

I am honored to welcome you to a new chapter in our shared growth, learning, and excellence journey.

Whether you are a parent, guardian, student, educator, staff member, or community partner — your presence matters. In the East Tallahatchie School District, we believe that every family, every child, and every voice plays a vital role in shaping our schools and future.

As Superintendent, my focus is clear: to lead with purpose, serve with compassion, and make decisions that always put students first. That means ensuring every child has access to high-quality instruction, a safe and supportive learning environment, and the opportunity to reach their fullest potential.

We are a resilient district, rich with tradition and driven by a vision of equity and excellence. We’re not just educating students — we’re preparing leaders, thinkers, and citizens ready to make a difference in the world.

We will continue building strong relationships between our schools and the communities they serve because when we work together, our children thrive. I invite you to stay connected, informed, and involved — your partnership is one of our greatest strengths.

Thank you for the trust you place in us. I’m proud to serve East Tallahatchie and excited for all we will accomplish together.

In partnership with Student Excellence,

Raymond Russell
Superintendent
East Tallahatchie School District
