The Mission of Prevention and Support Services

The mission of the Prevention and Support Services Department is to provide comprehensive support to students, families, and schools in ways that strengthen the educational process and promote positive outcomes for every student. Our department focuses on key areas that impact student success, including behavior, attendance, counseling, mental health, academic recovery, and student engagement.

The Warrior Inspirational Academy serves as the alternative learning setting for Russell County Schools, providing students with a structured and supportive environment designed to address individual needs while encouraging personal growth and academic success.

Our commitment to improving outcomes for students drives us to provide and support a variety of programs and initiatives designed to help students reach their full potential. These include the Warrior Inspirational Academy, Warrior Virtual Academy, Peer Helpers, Rhithm, and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS).

The Prevention and Support Services Department also assists students with credit recovery, college and career readiness, social-emotional learning, character development, mental health support, and other services that promote academic and personal growth.

Through collaboration with students, families, educators, and community partners, we strive to create supportive pathways that empower students to overcome challenges, build confidence, and achieve their goals.

Our goal is simple: to provide every student with the support, resources, and opportunities they need to discover their path to success.
