I have 2 daughters that attended York Comprehensive, one that graduated in 2010 from the former high school and one that transferred in 10th grade to the SC Governor's School for Science and Math. As every parent wants the best for their children I am without exception. York offered a great connection and very hands on interest in both my girls allowing them to be the best possible students while encouraging and supporting their interests. The advanced courses offered are top notch and the extracurricular activities are abundance meeting a wide variety of interests. Our children have fund memories of most teachers with the exception of a math teacher that was very hard for students to understand, (which we are confident is retired by now), as well as an overloaded guidance counselor we were assigned to. The school building, technology center, and athletic fields are state of the art and represents the look and feel of a university. The district spared no expenses for their students, teachers, or faculty. Our oldest graduated college with a biology degree and our youngest is graduating from governors school this year. York Comprehensive was a great experience for our family.

YCHS is a school where you would want your child to be! The new school facility is amazing -- probably the best in the state! I'd invite any former graduate to return for a tour so you can see how far we have come! I enjoy going to work every day -- the administration is supportive and student-focused. We have a great group of students, too!
