At RNS, we do everything possible to ensure that every student is enthusiastic, encouraged and cared for both in and out of the classroom. The school day is very busy: classes, sports, hobbies, co-curricular activities, field trips, conferences, environmental issues, fundraising, etc. At RNS, something is going on all the time and all of our students are involved in many different areas that keep them busy, make them happy and not least having fun. We believe that happy students are successful students. <\/p>

At RNS, there are cultural and educational trips organized throughout the school year. These trips are based on the subject matter being studied in the lessons and reinforce their learning. Excursions vary according to each year group and include trips to museums, farms, local industries, historical monuments, theaters and nature reserves. <\/p>

There are also assemblies that allow the teacher the opportunity to not only give messages and announcements to all students and record attendance, but more importantly, to follow the progress of individual students and address pastoral duties so that the student is taken care of. In addition, various topics are addressed which vary throughout the year and include topics such as sharing, social responsibility, recycling, inclusion, bullying, etc. This meeting time is an integral part of our pastoral care. Students may also have the opportunity to take turns leading the assembly on a topic in which they have a special interest. They may also show some of their work, present a short play, or report back to the other grades on a recent field trip. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

RNS is a fully accredited Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) testing center offering school students and external community members the opportunity to sit for this test used for college entrance in the United States.<\/p>

The SAT measures the literacy and writing skills needed for academic success in college. Its purpose is to assess the analysis and problem solving skills they learned in school that they will need in college. The test is administered within a time limit to produce a range of scores. The SAT consists of three main sections: critical reading, mathematics, and writing. Each section receives a score on the 200-800 scale. The test is 3 hours and 45 minutes long divided into timed sections, with questions ranging from easy, medium and difficult. <\/p>

The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is a standardized test used to measure the English language ability of non-native speakers who wish to enroll in English-speaking universities. The test is accepted by many English-speaking academic and professional institutions. TOEFL is one of the two main English language tests in the world, the other being the IELTS. <\/p>

The test lasts four hours and is scored on a scale of 0 to 120 points and consists of four sections (reading, listening, speaking, writing), each of which measures one of the basic language skills. All tasks focus on language used in a higher education academic setting. Most universities use TOEFL scores as only one factor in their admissions process, and a university or program within a university often sets a minimum TOEFL score required. Minimum TOEFL scores range from 61 (Bowling Green State University) to 111 (University of Oxford). <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
