GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I think York is a great school, and it is definitely enjoyable to go to school here. I think the teachers are great, and the curriculum we have is fun, and gets us ready for the big life things we need!

York High School has been a great place to learn. I made new friendship, learned about myself and was able to do it all in a safe environment.

I loved that my school really encourages others to participate in activities. I was never one to be a part of a team or like being around people but my school pushed me to want that. I was a part of One Act for 3 years and we made it to state every single year. I also liked how inclusive our school was. Usually activities like theater or fine arts aren't as recognized as sports but my school does a very good job at making sure everyone's included.
