At Canterbury, every student makes the team. The interscholastic sports program encourages individual participation and achievement by giving every student an opportunity to learn and play sports competitively. This policy of inclusion is at the core of Canterbury athletics.

Support
A Community of Philanthropy
As an independent school, we design our own programs and curriculum and operate without reliance on local, state or federal taxes. Canterbury School relies on tuition income, Canterbury Fund contributions, endowment income and other fundraising activities to support our thriving college preparatory environment.

The Canterbury School Foundation was founded in 1985, as a nonprofit corporation that operates exclusively for the benefit of Canterbury School. The Foundation fulfills that role through the management and growth of the endowment, making periodic contributions to the School's operation, and assisting and participating in the maintenance of the School. It is governed by a Board of Directors. Membership is open to all persons recommended to the Foundation's Nominating Committee and approved by the Foundation Board. The Canterbury Foundation telephone number is (260) 407-3565.
