Dear ROYALS Families,
Thank you to all who helped to donate items, funds, and your time to celebrate our entire staff during Staff Appreciation Week. We are grateful for you and for the opportunity to work with your children. We also have a few celebrations to report!
Congratulations to our Girls Soccer Team as they are undefeated so far and are headed to the championship next week. We also had a very successful Band concert last night and tonight at 7:00 pm and tomorrow at 4:00 pm we have our first musical performance of Captain Bree and Her Lady Pirates. Doors open for ticket sales at 6:30 pm and 3:30 pm respectively and students may attend with an adult. We hope you can come. Our staff and students have worked very hard on this production.
This week you received communication from our district regarding the Chromebook collection at the end of the year. If you missed it, you can read that here. The different Chromebook collection dates are as follows: 8th grade will be Thursday, 5/19, 6th grade will be Friday, 5/20 and 7th grade will be Tuesday, 5/24. If your child is ending school early due to a family reason, they will need to turn in their Chromebook, case and charger before they leave.
Breakfast and Lunch Service for next school year will no longer be free. In August, breakfast will cost $2.25 and lunch will cost $3.75 for middle level students. Should your family need assistance with this, you can start the application process now through payschoolscentral.com.
Here is a recap of announcements related to the grade based field trips at the end of the year:
6th Grade will be going to Boondocks on May 24th. Permission slips came home last week.
7th Grade will be going to Sky Zone on May 20th. Permission slips were sent home a few weeks ago with behavioral expectations on the back. If you have not seen one, please check with your student. You can also reach out to your student's pathways teacher. Each guardian must complete the SkyZone waiver.
8th Grade will be going to Elitch Gardens on May 20th. Permission slips went home lastweek along with the behavioral expectations.
Best,

Locks & lockers were checked out to athletes who wanted them this week. Lockers are optional and if a lock is not returned, a $5 fine will be assessed at the end of the season.
