Strategic Plan 2023-2028

Program

An infrastructure of robust academic curricula, excellent athletic and artistic opportunities, and programming to support our students’ emotional well-being is essential to propelling our graduates on journeys that lead far beyond strong college preparation and placement to lives of great intellect, passion, and purpose.

An excerpt from Head of School Rachel Stone's presentation of the Canterbury School Strategic Plan 2023-2028 to an audience of alumni, parents, school leaders, education consultants, and trustees (January 2023).  

 


 

Strategic Imperative


Assure the most comprehensive boarding school experience that leads to transformative learning and the best individual outcome for each student, prioritizing academic excellence, well-being, and outstanding co-curricular programs.

Opportunities

  • Centralize academic and college counseling programming/spaces into an Academic Hub to strengthen student success through increased access, communication, collaboration, and support. 
  • Expand the Health & Wellness Center facility and resources, as well as wellness education programming, to ensure our ability to care for the physical and socio-emotional well-being of our students.
  • Grow the academic course of study in areas that provide meaningful real-world connections, such as entrepreneurship and financial literacy, innovation and design, digital citizenship, and the Life Worth Living program.
  • Upgrade our academic spaces to reflect the excellence of our teaching and learning, particularly in Old School House and Hume Hall.  
  • Upgrade our athletic facilities to support and develop our student-athletes by renovating the Athletic Center and Pigott Arena.
