Royal High School sends graduates into the world

ROYAL CITY — Royal High School’s graduation Friday was a little bittersweet, said Principal Courtney McCoy. “I will miss you more than you know,” McCoy said, opening the 2026 commencement ceremony. “You have left a lasting impression, not only in the halls of Royal High School, but in the hearts of teachers, staff, families, and friends who have had the privilege of watching you grow. Many of you have spent 13 years walking, running, learning, playing across these four campuses.
