Urgent Announcement - Suspension of Normal School Operations Extended

To our Royal ISD Community, 

I am writing to share that Royal ISD will continue online learning and remote operations at least through May 4, and all district campuses and facilities will remain closed to the public during this time. While district campuses and facilities are closed at this time, our District is operational and our work continues. Our students and teachers began engaging in online learning environments Monday 3/30. 

We recognize that our community and our nation is in the midst of a public health crisis that will require continued, joint efforts to minimize the spread of COVID-19, and this will require our District to continue operations in a new way for the time being. This decision is in alignment with Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s executive order announced today. 

You can be assured that as we move forward, and we will continue to keep our staff and families updated as additional information becomes available. We know we are facing many unknowns, but we are making all decisions with our students, staff, and families in mind. 

I truly appreciate the way our RISD community has responded in the face of adversity – and we will get through this together.

Thank you, 

Royal ISD
