Important Update from RISD Regarding the Beginning of the 2020-2021 School Year

Royal ISD is strongly committed to ensuring student, staff, and community safety. As you know, COVID-19 cases have risen dramatically in recent weeks. As a result, Royal ISD has put into place remote learning for the first three weeks of the 2020-2021 school year (see schedule below).

Please note: Only Royal Elementary (PK-1) will resume face-to-face learning in week three. The remaining campuses will resume face-to-face learning in week four (if that is the learning option you selected). This will allow us to have extra staff on duty to assist with the implementation of safety procedures for our younger students.

During this three-week time period, no extracurricular activities (athletics, band, theater, FFA, etc.) will be held. An update will be provided once the district determines the date that activities will resume.  

As always, please continue to monitor the district website and your email for additional updates. Please continue to request access to the Skyward Parent Portal, complete all required student registration forms, and select your students’ learning options.

This announcement is subject to change as we continue to receive guidance from Texas Education Agency and the Texas Governor.

Please refer to the schedule below for details by week for each campus.
