York Country Day School

York Country Day School is a college preparatory school Pre-K - 12th grades, actively engaged in the pursuit of excellence.

We are committed to every student developing exceptional communication and problem-solving skills by focusing on the whole child, the process of learning, and collaborative inquiry-driven classrooms. Educating students in preschool through grade 12, we strive to produce graduates who will make significant contributions throughout their lives as self-reliant, ethical, and compassionate leaders.

We encourage our students to develop a love of learning which will motivate them to continue to seek knowledge and acquire understanding throughout their lifetimes. To this end, we encourage students to take an active role in the learning process. Throughout their years at York Country Day, students develop the skills necessary for independent inquiry, critical thinking and creative expression. We are committed to maintaining a challenging academic program that is designed for students who possess high academic goals. We recognize the uniqueness of each individual child and strive to help each fulfill his or her potential.

Our signature programs including Capstone 5812, Service Learning, STEAM, YCDS College Connect, and the Center for Wellness enhance our vibrant and engaging academic experience and are just a few of the many strengths to our extraordinary program.
