Ratepayers built Canterbury School, east of Dysart, in 1914 at a cost of $1,400. The first teacher, Frank Matthew, was hired for $65 a month. Following an outbreak of whooping cough and influenza in 1918, the school closed for some time. The next teacher was hired for $1,000 per year provided he or she did the janitorial work. In 1936, $.75 bought a load of wood for the school stove, and by 1940 the price had increased to four dollars a load. The payment was applied to a ratepayer's taxes if he or she was in arrears. In 1960, the school closed, and the students were bused to Dysart. The last teacher was Mrs. Helen Kotylak.
