History
In 1992, Provost Pitak Rattakhet abbot of Wat Pak Nam expressed his desire to use the 11 rai of land for construction of a secondary school to Mr. Mungkorn Kullawanit the director of Rayongwittayakhom School at the time. After listening to the abbot Mr. Mungkorn agreed to the idea so he took it to the Ministry of Education officials in Rayong. After reviewing the abbots and Mr. Mungkorns proposal the Minister of Education at the time Mr. Bunjong Phongsaht came to Rayong for a meeting with Mr. Mungkorn and other officials. After the meeting and carefully examining the 11 rai of land Mr. Bunjong approved the proposal and on February 22, 1994, Rayongwittaykhompaknam School was officially established by the Ministry of Education .
On March 14, 1994, the Regional office of Secondary Education allocated the budget for the construction of a 318 L/30 (Special) building which has 4 levels with built-in toilets. On June 16, 1994, the Ministry of Education ordered the appointment of Mr. Manhop Ngamsuwan as the first-ever director of Rayongwittayakom Paknam School.
