Located in the village of Carp, Huntley Centennial is a public elementary school offering regular English and Early French Immersion programs from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8. The attendance boundary for both programs covers most of the area of the former Huntley Township (except for a small area on the edge of Stittsville to the
south) and the Marchurst Road area of rural Kanata.
In
September 2006, Huntley Centennial Public School had an enrolment of 558
students in the regular English and Early French Immersion programs.
Built in 1967, Canada's Centennial Year, Huntley Centennial P.S. was built in wings around a central core of gymnasium and office areas. In 1975 another wing was constructed to serve Grades 7 and 8, and additional washroom facilities were completed in September 2000. Huntley Centennial enjoys a large, well-equipped playground area, supplemented by access to community recreation facilities including the W. Erskine Johnston arena.
Huntley Centennial is well supported by an active and involved school council, which supports the school and its programs in a wide variety of ways, through the extensive participation of parent and community volunteers.
Improvements to the school library have been a special focus for the school
council.
Students who complete Grade 3 at Huntley Centennial may choose to enter the Middle French Immersion program at Stonecrest E.S. in Woodlawn, beginning in Grade 4. Students who complete Grade 6 at Huntley Centennial may choose to enter the Late French Immersion program at Fitzroy Centennial P.S. in Kinburn for Grade 7.

Students entering vocational programs attend Sir Guy Carleton S.S. in Nepean. Special education students who have been identified as gifted may choose to attend Bell H.S. in Nepean, the closest of six secondary gifted centres.
