Named and Honorary Funds

Over the course of our schools' histories, we have been extremely fortunate to have students, teachers, administrators, and other community members who have had a transformative impact on our community. In some cases, we have decided to establish named funds to honor these significant contributors that we have either lost or who have moved on of their own accord.

To read more about these funds, please click the arrow next to their name for a brief description.

Andy Williamson Scholarship Fund

After losing our beloved teacher Andy Williamson in June 2017, we established the Andy Williamson Scholarship Fund in his memory. As we remember Andy and his “Stay Gold” approach to teaching and life, we hope our community will continue to donate to the Andy Williamson Scholarship Fund. We want to honor his memory for years to come and help students thrive.

In addition to the scholarship fund, Andy is memorialized on campus with a lemon tree and outdoor reflection area that students, faculty, and staff enjoy.

The McCormack Fund for Financial Assistance

Peter McCormack was a committed head of school for 25 years and sought to establish and maintain numerous standards and traditions within our community prior to his retirement in 2018. This fund was established to recognize his many years of dedication that helped form a solid community of caring families and individuals. We hope that this fund can make his enduring vision of two forward-thinking schools as accessible as possible for those who can benefit from and contribute to the Rolling Hills Prep and Renaissance Schools community.

Adam Z. Rice Memorial Theater

Adam Z. Rice was a memorable Rolling Hills Prep student and active performing artist who brought light to every corner of our schools. After graduating from RHP in 2011, he went on to pursue performing arts at Berkeley prior to his tragic passing in 2014. The Adam Z. Rice Memorial Performing Arts Center is a project dedicated to preserving Adam's memory well into the future.

Amy Woolington Scholarship Fund

Supported by friends and family of Amy Woolington, in her memory, the Scholarship Fund accepts donations to support tuition and fees for a deserving RHP student in Amy's name. The first Amy Woolington Scholar graduated in 2014, and the second recipient enrolled in 6th grade in 2017.
