🎉 Homecoming is next week! 🎉
Baley Middle School will join Royse City High School in celebrating with the same fun dress-up days! 🙌

✨ Remember:
• No school on Monday!
• No mums/garters
• Dress code will still apply each day (pajama pants are allowed Tuesday only 💤).
• Student IDs are part of our dress code and must be worn every day—even when you’re showing off your school spirit!

We can’t wait to see our Bulldogs’ creativity and spirit all week long!

Mrs. Lowry's students got hands-on with the properties of water today. Using a penny and an eyedropper, they explored cohesion, adhesion, and surface tension by seeing how many drops a penny could hold.

📚 Help Royse City ISD Start Strong With Student Attendance 🌟
To ensure your student doesn't miss out on learning opportunities and to support our district's funding:
Schedule dentist and doctor appointments outside of school hours or in the afternoon to avoid full-day absences.
Plan family trips and vacations during scheduled school breaks whenever possible.
Keep sick children home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without medication to prevent spreading illness.
Sending a child to school sick can lead to more missed days for them and potential work days for parents.
Let's prioritize attendance for a successful school year!
#RoyseCityISD #AttendanceMatters #HealthyHabits #StudentSuccess #EveryDayCounts 🏫💙

📚 Ayude a Royse City ISD a Empezar el Año Escolar Fuerte con la Asistencia de los Estudiantes 🌟
Para asegurar que su estudiante no pierda oportunidades de aprendizaje y apoyar la financiación de nuestro distrito:
Programe las citas con el dentista y el médico fuera del horario escolar o por la tarde para evitar ausencias durante todo el día.
Planifique viajes familiares y las vacaciones durante los recesos escolares programados siempre que sea posible.
Mantenga a los niños enfermos en casa hasta que no tengan fiebre durante 24 horas sin medicamentos para evitar la propagación de enfermedades.
Enviar a un niño enfermo a la escuela puede ocasionar más días perdidos para ellos y posibles días de trabajo perdidos para los padres.
¡Vamos a priorizar la asistencia para tener un año escolar exitoso!

Golden Debs Mini Clinic

As a result of the 89th Texas Legislative session, House Bill 1481 was passed and signed into law this summer. This means that all public school students in Texas, including RCISD students, will be expected to store their cell phones securely out of sight during school hours. Specifically, the law states, “a student is prohibited from using a personal communication device while on school property during the school day.”

Students will be allowed to use their cell phones before and after school; they may not have their phones in use or visible after the first bell, and before the last bell of the day.


As we navigate the implementation of this recently passed legislation (HB 1481) we would like to thank our parents for your continued partnership. We encourage you to talk to your students in the coming weeks as summer winds down, so they are better prepared to be without their communication device during the school day. Thank you for your support!


Be sure to complete your Intent to Return forms in Family Access so that we have your most updated contact information.



Como resultado de la 89a sesión legislativa de Texas, el proyecto de ley 1481 fue aprobado y promulgado este verano. Esto significa que se espera que todos los estudiantes de escuelas públicas en Texas, incluso los estudiantes del Distrito Escolar Independiente de Royse City, guarden sus teléfonos celulares de manera segura fuera de la vista durante el horario escolar. Específicamente, la ley establece que "a un estudiante se le prohíbe usar un dispositivo de comunicación personal mientras está en propiedad escolar durante el día escolar."

Se les permitirá a los estudiantes usar sus teléfonos celulares antes y después de la escuela; es posible que no tengan sus teléfonos en uso o visibles después de la primera campana, y antes de la última campana del día.

A medida que avanzamos en la implementación de esta ley recientemente aprobada (HB 1481) nos gustaría agradecer a nuestros padres por su continua asociación. Le animamos a que hable con sus estudiantes en las próximas semanas conforme el verano se termina, para que estén mejor preparados para estar sin su dispositivo de comunicación durante el día escolar. ¡Gracias por tu apoyo!

Asegúrese de completar sus formularios de intención de devolución en Acceso Familiar para que tengamos su información de contacto más actualizada.
