This is a profile of Canterbury High, a public high school in Ottawa that focuses on the arts. Canterbury High, Ottawa. Almost everything that goes into the vibrant life of Ottawa's Canterbury High School and its well-known arts program is positive and mutually reinforcing. The school is graced by 800 gifted arts students, some who take twice-daily two-hour bus rides to get there and back--and all of whom have braved tough auditions to be among the half of applicants who make it in. Kids from any of the five arts divisions (visual, dance, drama, music and literary--the last a rarity in Canada) support their peers in the other groups, stopping to offer applause for a band's hall concert, or incorporating poems within wall murals. When Canterbury took on its current role in 1983, the Ottawa school board was able to provide it with the additional money that an arts school requires--Canterbury spends $15,000 annually on auditions alone.
