York Preparatory School

School Overview:

School Notes:

• We believe that potential York Prep students are initially attracted to the school based on the perception that students from diverse backgrounds can be challenged to excel and find success. York Prep's personalized admissions process probes beyond test results for innate skills, interests, and potential that even high scores do not reveal.
• Since York Prep's average class size is 15, with a 1:6 student-to-teacher ratio, teachers have the opportunity to tailor the curriculum in ways that will best suit both the needs of the class as a whole and the needs of students as individuals. Based on assessments and recommendations, we place students in flexible, ability-level groupings in math, foreign language, and the humanities/science areas, where the challenge is appropriate to students' skill level to optimize academic success. Small class size also enables our faculty to have frequent, thorough, and meaningful contact with parents.
• One hundred per cent of the graduating class is accepted to college, with over 85% of students getting into their top two choices.
