Community
Canterbury Christian School is a close-knit community formed by shared commitments to faith, learning, and ordered life. Education at Canterbury is not an isolated endeavor but a partnership among parents, church, and school, working together for the good of each child.
Parents
Parents are the primary educators of their children, and Canterbury exists to support and assist them in this responsibility. We value clear communication, mutual trust, and shared expectations between home and school.
Families are expected to support the school’s academic standards, behavioral expectations, and Christian identity. This partnership fosters consistency, stability, and a strong sense of community for students.
Church Partnership
Canterbury Christian School is the parish school of Saint Paul’s Anglican Church. The life of the school is shaped by the worship, teaching, and Christian witness of the Church.
This partnership provides students with a visible connection between faith and daily life. While families come from a variety of Christian traditions, the school’s identity and practices are grounded in historic Christianity and Anglican worship and practice.

These traditions help form a shared culture and strengthen bonds among students, families, and staff.
