The story of Mission & Momentum: The Campaign for Canterbury is a story of our students—their ideas, their visions, and their aspirations for the School, community, and home we all share.

The Steers Center—our striking, new, 22,000-square foot student center with innovative academic space—is the result of an extensive community-wide study focused on our students’ day-to-day academic and extracurricular lives. It is an entirely student-centric space. 

Strategically placed at the natural crossroad of campus life—where students instinctively converge among academic, athletic, and residential buildings—the Steers Center will create a hub for our entire community. It will nurture a full range of meaningful interactions among students and faculty, inspire collaborative and innovative learning, and provide a gathering place for community events and celebrations. Together with a new campus square, its location will strengthen the interconnectivity of our physical campus at the intersection of Elkington Farm Road and Aspetuck Avenue and anchor the daily pace and pattern of our community to the center of our hilltop.
