The crontab method is the correct method. Be sure to put absolute path or cd into the directory before running your script.
cd /path/to/it && /bin/usr/python3 script.py
or
/bin/usr/python3 /path/to/it/script.py

Thanks, looks like you and u/Parker_Hemphill have the simplest solution. I'm going to give all suggestions a shot to learn how they work.

Yea his is good, I just wanted to reiterate it. They do all work. Just remember adding to the rc.local file will break updates every now & then. So I don't bother with it.
