Aligned with Cannon’s mission and a key initiative within our Campus Master Plan, A Flourishing Future enhances learning spaces to inspire academic excellence, collaboration, and growth—creating an environment where all students can thrive.

A 12,500 sq. ft. expansion and renovation of the Upper School will introduce flexible classrooms, modern science labs, and open student spaces designed to foster engagement, exploration, and dynamic learning experiences.

To ensure comprehensive academic support from Junior Kindergarten through Grade 12, the addition of dedicated Academic Resource Centers (ARCs) in the Lower, Middle, and Upper School will cultivate growth, curiosity, confidence, and independent learning.

Through A Flourishing Future, Cannon is transforming the Upper School and strengthening academic support across all divisions to support students on their journey of growth.

3 dedicated Academic Resource Centers situated across Lower, Middle, and Upper School, supporting students at every stage of their academic journey.
