History
The name of Richmond Rose Public School is based on the Town of Richmond Hill's longstanding reputation as the "Rose Growing Capital of Canada". The school opened in September of 1999. The official opening ceremony for Richmond Rose P.S. was held on May 11, 2000. Our school motto is "Learning and Growing Together".

Mission and Touchstone
In order to support the Board's mission, the mission of Richmond Rose P.S. is "Learning and Growing Together". In 2005, students and staff created the Richmond Rose Touchstone to support everything we do. The following is the Richmond Rose Touchstone:
At Richmond Rose, we take responsibility for our work, words and actions.
We put in our best efforts, enjoy our successes, and learn from our mistakes.
We embrace each other's differences and care for each other's feelings.
We think before we speak and use words that are appropriate for school.
Our community is a safe community; a place where we treat people with kindness, respect and dignity
No one is afraid at our school.
At Richmond Rose, we are free to succeed!
