My experience at Yorktown High is that it is one of the best schools in the country. Students have access to a plethora of resources and technologies that enhance the learning experience.

It was an experience I'll say that, In my time at Yorktown I encountered a lot a racist people but I got through it because of certain, teachers, administrators and counselors. They weren't all racist but I do think sometimes people of color are treated unfairly, overall I had a somewhat ok experience due to the people they and I will say the teachers actually want you to succeed and will help as much as possible.

Phenomenal school. My third child is there now. Rising sophomore. 2/3 with iep/504. Amazing support. Love that many of the teachers are young males who can relate to my kids. (Who also went to Yorktown). The level of classes they offer really are better than some of the private schools in the area....

No complaints. Great support system and educational experience.
4/25/2023
Usually, I am not particularly eager to write reviews. However, I am going to make an exception for the betterment of our children's education. The school has multiple issues, such as teachers needing to be more cooperative with students and their unempathetic stance in seeing their students succeed...

Excellent school. Strong academics, activities, and sports. Comprehensive support of the whole student. Many opportunities to pursue areas of interest.
