The vision of the founder of Rotary International School, late Dr. H.T. Rodrigo, was “to provide quality education to every student who comes to learn charging a modest amount.” Following his footsteps, the next generations had been able to live up to his expectations by providing the best education in a peaceful environment while charging a very affordable fee. This vision has given opportunities to many parents to make their children learn in an International School in the highest standards. Rotary International School had always believed that there is no better good cause than enlightening a child with education.

At Rotary, everyone is free to express their thoughts. Our principal, Madam Dr. Renuka Rodrigo has made her duty to listen to any parent’s concerns as well as well-wishes. Upon her humble duty to listen to any parent’s thoughts, parents have grown so much trust in the school. The school conducts a system where any request or concern could reach to the top management and the appropriate actions to be taken. 

Pursing the standard government approved syllabus, students are able to gather the required knowledge and compete with students of any outside school. Having an experienced and a dedicated lecture panel is one of the key strengths of RIS and students are reaping the benefits out of it. Rotary has been able to produce some outstanding students throughout the past. Currently also there are Rotarians who have entered local universities and private universities and who are already holding top positions in the job circuit. The Past Pupils Association (PPA) of Rotary International School comprising of hundreds of members have already helped in the advancement of the school.

RIS is well known for its cultural and religious events. We believe that there is no existence in the society without the culture and the religion. Being more of Buddhist cultured school, all the special occasions are being celebrated at the school. The reason been that students should be able to learn and continue the proud traditions our ancestors had brought. Also a repetitive sentence that is been is used in the school is “everyone must be religious”. Religion only speaks of what good and bad is. It’s the school’s duty to nurture the child in the correct path; becoming obedient, kind, respecting, loving. One thing what we always teach children is respect your parents and teachers because we see that the society is lacking this condition nowadays.
