Principal's message
Mr. Fife
Principal
Choosing a school for your son or daughter is a very important decision. While RICC does not boast a long history and rich heritage dating back to the 1800s, like many similar schools, it makes up for it in the strong commitment and dedication that our staff has for our students. It is a modern version of the traditional boarding school, emphasizing the values necessary to build character and pursue excellence, and to succeed at the next level. With that goal in mind, RICC has already experienced great success in educating young men and women from across the world and preparing them for the rigours of university. This year, 100% of students received acceptance to universities across Canada as well as in the United States and England.

Mr. Nash

I saw students achieve and go beyond their own expectations. The abilities of my students continue to amaze me even after 10 years of teaching. Seeing my students bravely act out scenes from “Death of a Salesman” or challenge themselves and write exquisite poetry, tells me that if you challenge students they will rise up to their ability and succeed.
