Runnymede Wall of Fame
In May 2002, the Runnymede 75th Anniversary Reunion Committee introduced the Runnymede Wall of Fame to recognize and honour former graduates who have made significant contributions in some aspect of society: the sciences, business, professional sports, arts, media, and other fields.
This initiative has continued and each year, Runnymede recognizes a former Runnymede graduate who has achieved success and pushed the limits of his/her field.
The Wall of Fame has added significantly to our current students’ appreciation for the school’s rich history of academic excellence and community leadership. It provides current students with excellent role models and examples of the rewards of hard work and participation.
