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.

York Acadamy is overall a very good school. York Academy is a school that you send your children to if you want them to have a high level education. The education at York Academy is at a college level that prepares students.

Overall York Academy is a diverse school with decent education opportunities. I would like to see more sport, club, and community base activities occur. We do have assembly's, some community base activities, and counseling opportunities but I do not feel it is enough. I personally y have had a pretty good experience with the school. It is a safe and flexible environment to pursue your educational goals.

I love going to York Academy because as a junior I get to take IB classes which I feel really challenge me and will help prepare me for college. All of my teachers are also very kind and supportive. The only complaint I have about the school is that as a small school, there aren't that many opportunities for clubs and sports, or choices for classes. As someone who wants to go into STEM, I wish that there were more STEM-related extracurriculars to choose from because we only have one. All in all, I think that York Academy is a great school and I wouldn't rather go to any other school in my area.

We just finished kindergarten, it was a terrible experience and we won't be going back. Teachers, staff and administration are condescending and rude. They are charter, and can pick which students they want...and once they decide then don't want you, they make your life miserable. They spend all day...
