The Rothesay High School Alumni Bursary Fund
The Rothesay High School Alumni Bursary Fund was established in 2021 to support Rothesay High School graduates pursuing post-secondary education. The bursary rewards students demonstrating perseverance, strong work ethic, leadership, and community involvement.
In 2020, The Rothesay High Alumni Association was created by future and current alumni, to include graduates of both Rothesay High School and its predecessor Rothesay Regional High School.
From 1951 – 1975, the communities of Renforth through to Hammond River were served by Rothesay Regional High School, enrolling students from grades seven to twelve. In 1998, Rothesay High School was opened to educate the students of Rothesay and surrounding areas, grades nine to twelve.
In 2021 a member of the Rothesay High School Alumni Association established a permanent endowment fund, ‘The Rothesay High School Alumni Bursary Fund,’ with The Community Foundation in order to award bursaries to students who have graduated from Rothesay High School and are pursuing a post-secondary education.
Perseverance to succeed, solid work ethic, leadership qualities and community involvement shall form the criteria for consideration in awarding the bursaries.
