Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty, and friends, we are proud to announce that we have met our Annual Fund goal for the 2025-2026 school year. We couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you!

Donations to RNS provide scholarships and bursaries; resources for our classrooms, art, and music studios, and our athletic, co-curricular, and RNS Outdoors programs; maintain and beautify our campus; and assist us in providing continuing education to our outstanding faculty.

Together, gifts to the Annual Fund and the Endowment support both the needs of today and the promise of tomorrow, ensuring RNS continues to thrive for years to come. Thank you for your part!

Each year, we honour as Founders those who have helped guide and shape RNS through their leadership, commitment, kindness, support, and stewardship.

In June, we recognized and celebrated Terry Bird and Jim Brittain ’74 for their incredible contributions to our school. The Founders Luncheon takes place during Reunion Weekend, and Heritage Hall was filled with alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and loved ones of our inductees - past and present - as we warmly welcomed Terry and Jim into this prestigious group.

Congratulations, Terry and Jim, and thank you!
