Macon R-1 School District is pleased to welcome Darrell Russell as the new Building Trades Instructor at our Macon Area Career and Technical Education Center!

TEAM MACON BIO:

"I live at New Cambria on a farm where we raise black and red angus cattle. I’ve been involved in the building trades industry for over thirty years. In that time, I have performed all phases of construction and carpentry jobs. My wife is Tina Russell and we have a daughter, Ashlyn Russell. I currently serve as vice president of the Macon County R4 school board. I’m excited about the opportunity to share my experience in the construction industry with young people who want to learn and grow in this field."

Welcome to Macon R-1, Mr. Russell!
