Strategic Plan 2023-2028
People
To put it simply, there is nothing more critical to Canterbury’s success than the people learning, living, and working on our hilltop. Every member of our community animates our mission and inspires and preserves our School culture. Our students develop in impressive and transformational ways as young adults. And our faculty and staff mentor these very teenagers as teachers, advisors, coaches, dorm parents, and community members.
Strategic Imperative
Attract, retain, and generously support a diverse community of students, faculty, and staff of exceptional character, caliber, and mission alignment.
Opportunities
-
Endow scholarship programs to attract an extraordinary community of learners and ensure equitable access to the Canterbury experience.
-
Enhance compensation and benefits structures that effectively attract, affirm, and retain talented employees who sustain Canterbury’s culture and mission.
-
Create a Teaching Commons—physical space, technology, and resources dedicated to faculty professional development—that will foster collaboration and mentoring and support the continuous application of innovative approaches in pedagogy and the curriculum.
-
Endow graduate school funding for early-career teachers to promote their commitment to and success in boarding school education.
-
Build and/or renovate faculty and student housing to enhance our residential community.
