Teachers are great at communicating here, we couldn't make it to our sons parent teacher conference so she called us and had a phone conference instead, they are so good at working around busy schedules too! Highly recommend this school to anyone in the area.

"My time at Canterbury has been a disappointing experience, to say the least. While the campus may…read moreseem appealing at first glance, the reality is far from the image portrayed in brochures and promotional materials. The academic programs, touted as 'comprehensive' and 'innovative,' fell short of expectations. The coursework often felt outdated, and several instructors seemed disengaged and uninterested in the success of their students. The lack of practical applications and hands-on experiences left me feeling ill-prepared for the real-world challenges in my field. The administration at Canterbury is another major drawback. Bureaucratic processes are convoluted, and getting assistance from the administrative offices is a frustrating ordeal. Whether dealing with financial aid, course registration, or housing issues, I found myself constantly running into roadblocks, and the staff's lack of responsiveness only added to the frustration. Campus facilities, while visually appealing, are poorly maintained. The promised state-of-the-art facilities turned out to be more style than substance. Broken equipment in laboratories, outdated technology in classrooms, and insufficient library resources were a constant source of frustration for many students. The lack of a cohesive and supportive community was evident throughout my time at Canterbury. The student body felt fragmented, and there was a noticeable absence of school spirit or engaging extracurricular activities. It seemed like everyone was simply going through the motions, with little enthusiasm for learning or collaboration. Career services were practically nonexistent. The so-called job placement assistance was minimal, and networking opportunities were scarce. I struggled to find support in my post-graduation job search, feeling abandoned by the institution that should have prepared me for the workforce. In conclusion, I would caution anyone considering Canterbury to thoroughly research and reconsider their options. The glossy exterior masks a reality of subpar academics, unresponsive administration, and a lackluster campus culture. I regret my decision to attend this institution and would strongly advise prospective students to explore alternative educational opportunities." Not only was the school itself a dissapointmen so were the people there the kids were rude and said hurtful things to my kid. The teachers knew about the abusive behavor and did nothing

Personalized tutoring available. The Head of the school Mr. Jim Zwers, Dean Sikica Feldman, Elly Lago and the rest of the Staff go beyond the ordinary to make sure all students are happy, learning and having the best school experience ever. The school is very supportive of the personal goals of each student, guiding them in that direction so they can accomplish their goals. My granddaughters have learned not only academics but social skills and athletic training with the Knights cheerleading team. The holistic approach to education of CAI is brilliant preparing these students for life becoming the best version of themselves, ready to be successful in our society and contributing as a member of a group. I highly recommend this school.

My daughter runs on a pretty intense schedule and to me that is a very high plus point. In the adult world where you have big dreams and goals, you need to be set up with education, discipline and persistence. You need to know how to be part of a group and a team member. I truly believe that this school will set her up in life. And I have to give a shout out to Julie the cheer coach. She has a huge job. I see that. But what she's providing to these girls is a a wonderful activity where they are winning. My daughter is so proud to show me her routine as she learns, she's so proud to have her cheer uniform and is sooooo excited to perform. As a mother it fills me with utter joy to dress her up and watch her perform. I'm so thankful that the school and its staff are all there creating this environment. And as far as the previous negative review. It is old and nothing like what I experience. Moving here from California, I needed fast response and assistance in getting my kids enrolled. The school staff were there for me. I needed something addressed, I waiting less than 5 minutes to speak with the Dean directly. My daughter takes flowers from home to her teacher and that to me is a great indicator she's happy.

It has also been very disappointing that the school did not bother to hold the annual 5th grade trip to Washington D.C. which is something most children in elementary school greatly look forward to, our granddaughter being no exception. The school did not even bother letting parents know, we only found out ourselves when we inquired as to when the fundraising for it would begin.
