Canterbury School - Review #1

Great school, required to play a sport for all 3 seasons which kept you buys. Teaching was great with small class sizes. More attention from the teachers

Football was a great part of my high school time. The program was good and competitive, won an award my senior year for dedication to the program. And being part of theater tech which helped me meet different students in the school who I wouldn't normally hang out with.

Don't be nervous or scared being away from home. There are a lot of activities you can get involved with and meet some new friends. Being required to play sports help you meet people as well. Use your time to be productive and don't stay in your room too much

School was fun and a great experience and really helped with me preparing for college. A lot of different people were there to offer their insight on what to look at in a school. The people there were great and made the experience worth it in the end

Not sure if the annual snow fight still happens between Havemeyer and Sheehan dorms (Boys upper classmen dorms) but that is fun to watch regardless. Hockey games are fun to watch in the winter and the hot chocolcate at the NAF is delicious

Great science and math departments. Teachers were very helpful after hours during study hall. Teachers were very friendly

Competitive athletics, all levels of experience were welcome. Because you were required to play a sport everyone was accepting of your skill/experience level. Kept you busy in the afternoons and weekends

Theatre program was great and I was happy to be part of the tech group. Music concerts on campus by students were very good. All opportunities were available to everyone.

Lots of options available with getting involved outside of class. School offered three annual service trips for volunteer work. I did the volunteer trip to Lourdes France through the school

Freshman and sophomore dorms were all single rooms. Nice feature to have your own space, dorm activities during the weekends were fun and dorm nights were great. Monthly dorm nights to have everyone involved was always fun. There was always some sort of weekend activities going on. Upper classmen dorms were also mostly singles. It was very rare occurrence to be stuck with a roommate if you had to have one

Food was good and there are newer dining facilities since I have left. There was sit down dinner once a week, which students were in uniform and had a formal meal with random students regardless of grade and professor

New Milford was a nice area, there were local shops within walking distance of the school and a movie theater. The school would offer hourly shuttles on Sunday afternoons to Walmart and other surrounding stores for any students who needed to get something.

Social life was fun. With Saturday nights off you were able to hangout in other dorms and relax after the week. Week nights mostly consisted of study hall and practice. Made a lot of great friends who I still keep in contact with. There was a lot of diversity from other students around the world
