Many times these awards have included a trip to the Canada Wide Science Fair where they have also won prizes. The intramural program offered to students in grades 7-12 is regarded as a model in that the percentage of participation in both junior and senior sports is unusually high. This is in addition to a variety of school teams that prove themselves competitive against teams from other schools in the division. Graduates of Rocanville School have also proven their academic and extracurricular strength by winning a great number of scholarships in a variety of competitions. Through technological advances, adults in the community have access to first year university courses, business courses and high school upgrading. Classes can be obtained on-line, through home study or through televised satellite transmission to Rocanville School .

Open three afternoons each week, the store is run by volunteer workers, and depends upon the generous donations of clothing and household goods from the town and surrounding area. All money realized is returned to the community; to education, sports and recreation, medical equipment, culture and heritage and also personal donations in cases of fire or illness. That the Thrift Store has been and continues to be so successful is due to the combined effort of the entire community.
