Sub for Santa

Roy High has been abuzz with holiday spirit in our annual Sub for Santa Community Fundraiser. We have been holding concerts, running auctions, putting on a cookout, and having many other activities throughout the month to raise money to support students and their families in our community who find themselves in need this holiday season.

Esports Winter Festival

Roy had a great time participating in our District Esports competition at WIC. The event featured competitions for Super Smash Brothers, League of Legends, and Mario Kart, as well as our first ever Capture the Flag Competition where students competed to solve questions about game development, programming, and cybersecurity to try and earn the highest scores. Stetson Stanger from Roy High took 3rd place out of 27 participants in the Capture The Flag competition, and we had a very strong showing in the 69 participant Super Smash Brothers event where Roy students took not only 1st place, but also 2nd and 3rd! Spencer Jones, Jakob Zimmer, and Bowen Prusse did an excellent job representing our school, and we are looking forward to next semester when we will participate in the Utah UHSAA Pilot season to see how well we do in the state!

State Runner-Up

Our football team defeated the defending state champion Timpview squad in the Semifinals to reach the 5A State Championship game. This rematch against Region 5 rival Bountiful went down to the wire, with the Redhawks ultimately escaping with the victory. A hearty congratulations to our team and their coaching staff, and a huge shoutout to our Royal community for showing up in a big way.

Roy High Friendsgiving

Our Be Well Committee put on a Thanksgiving-themed connection activity for the entire faculty and staff to celebrate our camaraderie with and gratitude for our fellow Royals. A great event that was enjoyed by all!

Auto Tech Team Takes 2nd

On Friday November 1st, the Roy High auto tech team competed at Weber State against schools inside and outside the state of Utah. They took 2nd overall and one student, Levi Mayes, took first overall in the competition. This gives the auto team a chance to compete in the championship round at Weber State in February. Congrats to the team and to Levi Mayes, Kayla Hunter, and Kodge Peterson for advancing to the next round of competition!

Band Geeks

Our Performing Arts Department put on a fantastic show this month, a fun, new musical called "Band Geeks" about learning to embrace and accept who you are. The cast and crew did a phenomenal job, and many of our own band students were featured as the live accompaniment for the show!

Back-to-Back Region Champs

Congratulations to the Roy High football team for a fantastic run in the regular season and finishing as Region 5 Champions. Best of luck to them as they enter the playoffs as the Number 1 Seed in 5A.

The Varsity Boys (Lincoln Bell, Brayden Calvin, Haven Gee, Henrik Hulbert, Zack Jackson, Eli Pebley, and Ben Verhall) qualified as a team for the State Race, and Alivia Funk and Ruby Noorda claimed two of the six individual at-large spots at state.
