It is located at 900 Canterbury Ave and is the birth place of an enormous amount of young Canadian talent. It serves over 1300 students, more than most other schools in the area.[1] While offering both an arts program and a general program, Canterbury is known primarily for the arts in both it's local community and nationally.[1] The Arts Canterbury program began in 1983 and still remains present in the school to this day. HistoryThe school opened in 1969 as a comprehensive high school.[2] It was the last in a series of ten high schools built by the Collegiate Board to deal with baby boomers. At the time of its opening it was considered an extremely modern school, employing all the latest ideas in education. Most notably, many of its walls were movable (no longer a feature), allowing for an easy reorganization of space. It also had one of the largest libraries of any secondary school and today it is host to one of the largest secondary school auditoriums. From 1969 to 1976, Canterbury offered a technical program based on Aerospace Engineering. The shops offered Air-frame, and other aviation based technical studies. Additionally, the school operated a 1969 Cessna 190J (CF-CHS) and a Schweitzer 2-33 glider(CF-ABE), providing unique opportunities to students. However, The Ottawa Board of Education eventually withdrew support of the concept due to liability issues. The school later, as a result of a specialized schools program became an arts magnet school for the Ottawa-Gatineau region and has since draw attention for its success in nurturing a very creative and inclusive environment for students. Canterbury ArtsCanterbury has five different arts programs that students must audition and interview for to be accepted into.
