A New Day for Alexander City

On February 4, 2026, Alexander City celebrated the ribbon cutting of the new Benjamin Russell High School — a moment marking both the opening of a new facility and the beginning of a new chapter for the community’s students, families, and educators.

Dr. Reyes, Mr. Benefield, members of the Alexander City Schools Board, and other distinguished guests offered brief addresses during the ceremony, acknowledging that the present is now leading the way to the future in Alexander City.

As part of the celebration, Mayor Mike Densmore officially proclaimed the day “A New Day for Alexander City,” recognizing the significance of the occasion and the shared vision for the city’s future.
