Royal SkillsUSA Audio Visual Technology Department Brings Home Fourth State Championship
By: Zach Corley- SkillsUSA Reporter
The Royal SkillsUSA A/V Production Quiz Bowl Team performed very well at the State competition April 5 – 7, 2019 in Corpus Christi, Texas. The A/V Quiz Team competed against many other larger school districts from across the state. Out of one hundred plus student competitors from across the state, the Royal team of five, rose to the challenged and end up on top. After a two hour battle of answering a/v technology questions, this special group of team members advanced all the way to the final quiz bowl round. When it was all said and done, Royal earned it’s fourth State Championship! With this type of track record, there is quite a tradition set in the SkillsUSA A/V Chapter. The Royal SkillsUSA A/V Chapter has medaled six out of the last seven years and earned it’s fourth state championship within the last five years. Each member of this 2019 team received a gold medal, and the team received a gold state plaque and state championship banner to proudly display. The 2019 Audio Visual Production Quiz Bowl Team members are Shauna Odum, Jackie Reyes, Aldo Ramirez, Miriam Carbajal, and Victor Martinez.
Congratulations, once again to the 2019 State Champions! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication in representing Royal High School!
Dear Royal Families,
Student safety our top priority for us and we take all parent and student concerns very seriously. This morning a concerned parent posted about an issue with a school bus at a railroad crossing. All RISD buses are equipped with cameras and the video of the bus in question has been reviewed. The District Administration found no wrong doing on behalf of the bus driver mentioned in the facebook post.
Thank you to the community for bringing issues such as this to our attention.
Dear Falcon Parents:
There was an issue on yesterday (April 2, 2019) with one restroom at Royal High School. The problem was identified in the girl’s restroom on the 2nd floor, so we immediately closed the restroom and turned off the water in the entire building to resolve the problem. The plumbing problem was quickly resolved and the facilities at Royal High were fully functioning yesterday afternoon. We were able to host our annual National Honor Society Induction Ceremony last night without any issues or concerns. As the Campus Principal at Royal High School, I personally checked all restrooms both boys and girls in addition to all water fountains to ensure campus safety. I want to assure the community that all facilities at Royal High School are functioning properly. I also want to our community to know that campus safety is a top priority at Royal High School and The Royal Independent School District. We strive to ensure that all students and staff members are in a safe environment that optimizes learning for all students.
Sincerely,
Tony L. Runnels, Jr.
Principal
Royal High School
Go Falcons!!!!!
