Student life at Canterbury Christian School is shaped by order, rhythm, and purpose. Our days are carefully structured to support serious learning, reverent worship, and the formation of good habits. We believe a well-ordered school day provides students with stability, joy, and the conditions necessary for growth.

The school day at Canterbury follows a consistent and predictable rhythm. Clear routines help students develop habits of attention, responsibility, and diligence.
Each day includes:

Chapel & Worship
Worship is an integral part of life at Canterbury. Students participate regularly in chapel services shaped by the Holy Scriptures, the Book of Common Prayer, and the Christian Church Calendar.
Through Scripture reading, prayer, hymnody, and reverent participation, students are formed in the habits of Christian worship and learn that faith is not separate from learning, but central to it. Chapel life reinforces the school’s Christian identity and helps cultivate reverence, gratitude, and attentiveness before God.
