A Culture of Excellence…..
The York Suburban School District is in the midst of celebrating another national recognition as our High School was recently named a National Blue Ribbon School. Such an award can only come from an outstanding K-12 program and a community that supports education. The York Suburban community has consistently supported its schools, the students, and staff. There is evidence of this in so many ways including the tremendous volunteer support, attendance at school programs and functions, and open dialogue with teachers and administrators.
Our community expects continued excellence and the District is constantly seeking ways to improve our programs and services. We are currently conducting a study to determine the feasibility of expanding our full day kindergarten program. Our youngest learners are being asked to “cram” a full day of learning into just 2.5 hours. Are we effectively meeting their needs? Many of our students are in half day child care. Are we effectively meeting the needs of our families? Certainly, there is an additional cost to expanding the program but what are the benefits? These are the questions that we will answer in the coming weeks before ultimately making a recommendation.
This is one of many examples of the manner in which the District works to meet the needs of our students, their families, and the community as a whole. Thank you for your continued support and all that you contribute to the York Suburban Culture of Excellence.
