Teachers and staff are excellent, keeping communication open involving parents and students. School is diverse and my child feels safe and comfortable among the staff and his peers. We are at the point where we are preparing our student to leave for college soon, and York has been there to support us every step of the way.

I feel that York has exceptional academics, and put academics first. You can go in to teachers during office hours, and get help with anything you may need. There is someone for everyone at York, and that is why, even if you may be in the lowest grade, you can connect with older grades, and they will accept you as their own. I love the community at York. In general is why I love York school.

York is the premier school to attend if you have an interest in learning and a commitment to education. From the Head of School to the faculty to school employees, this is a community where everyone is supported and valued for who they are. As a parent of a daughter at York School, I am beyond grate...
