Welcome
Your place at the river starts here.
Christchurch School enrolls boarding and day students in grades 9 through 12. With 255 students from 30 countries on one river, Christchurch is small on purpose. Every student who finds their way here tends to wonder why it took them so long.
Is Christchurch Right for You?
Who Thrives Here
Christchurch is built for students who aren't satisfied by a one-size-fits-all education.
Whether your student is a self-motivated learner who wants the most rigorous academic program available, an athlete with college aspirations, a student who learns differently and needs a structured and supportive environment, or simply someone who hasn't yet found the place where they belong, Christchurch is designed around the idea that every student deserves to be known, challenged, and helped to grow. Our 7:1 student-to-teacher ratio and a faculty where 80% live on campus mean your student will never be a number here.

Financial Assistance
Cost Shouldn't Decide This
$4M
We are committed to making
Christchurch accessible.
Christchurch School maintains a $4 million financial aid budget. We encourage families to apply early, as this is a finite resource. Cost should not be the reason a student doesn't find their place at the river.
International Families
Students from 30 countries call Christchurch home.
International students are a vital part of what makes Christchurch the community it is. We offer dedicated support for international applicants, including an English as a Second Language program, visa guidance, and a team that understands the unique needs of families living abroad.
