Russellville High School gives away prom attire

RUSSELLVILLE, Ky. – On Saturday, Russellville High School hosted its first-ever prom dress giveaway.

Students were able to try on dresses, shoes and accessories.

The drive also included attire for male students as well.

One event coordinator says that financials aren’t the only factor that affects students.

“I think it’s important because every student deserves the same opportunities and some people maybe not just don’t have the money or don’t have the resources, maybe some people don’t have a way of going prom dress shopping,” Steele said. “So, since our high school is such a central point in Russellville, every student can walk, find a ride, hopefully, and come get what they need.”
