The atmosphere at York High School is extremely positive and inviting. The teachers make classes interesting and they put in a lot of effort for their students. I would love to see an increase in the arts department.

I really enjoy the teachers and the students there. It is enjoyable and a great distraction from home life. However, I do wish that there was more information posted about clubs and things to get involved in. You just have to know more or less.

The school definitely attempts to prepare their students for the college level, except no finals being implemented into the curriculum. Otherwise it's a very safe educational environment. Other than the discrimination and racism.
