Dear Families,



Thank you to everyone who came out to support our school at the recent budget meeting—we truly appreciate your involvement. If you would like to stay informed and learn more about what’s happening at our school throughout the year, we encourage you to attend the regular WRUD board meetings, held on the third Tuesday of each month.


Meetings alternate between the Bethel and Royalton campuses, and there is also a virtual option available for those who prefer to join remotely. Your engagement and support make a difference!

Interested in Helping Shape the Future of Our Middle School?



I am exploring the creation of a Middle School parent–teacher–administrator collaboration group, similar to a PTO, and I would love to hear from parents and caregivers who might be interested in helping shape it.

Hello Wildcat community,



One of the things I have come to appreciate most in my time working with our community is the insight that comes from conversations with parents and caregivers. Again and again, when people share their perspectives, questions, and ideas, I walk away with something valuable to consider and often something meaningful to apply here at the school. Those conversations have shaped many of the positive changes we have made together.

Royalton Recreation- Recycle Your Easter Eggs! 

The Royalton Recreation Commission is gearing up for our annual Easter celebration on April 4, featuring a pancake breakfast and two egg hunts that morning!

If you have plastic Easter eggs tucked away in closets or basements, we’d love to put them to good use. Please consider donating them for this year’s hunts.

A collection box is available in the lobby of South Royalton School. Thank you for helping us make this event egg-stra special!
