I like that most of the teachers and staff are nice and ready to help students. It feels like they treat the students there not just like students, but fellow members of society, which a lot of schools don't usually do. The school facilities, however, do need some work. Namely, the bathrooms, classrooms, and overall structure of the school does need some work, but the staff makes up for it.

My overall experience at YCD is good the school is driven to see their students succeed. During your time there administrators oftenly offer trips to various colleges and universities to allow for experience to be gained talking to colleges and getting you ready. The school grows year after year and more programs are being included.
