THE YORK SCHOOL BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING UPDATE
The Board of Directors held their annual off-site retreat yesterday. We were pleased to welcome Sarah Prevette, CEO of Future Design School and Sandra Nagy, Director of Learning of Future Design School, who joined us to reflect on our progress toward Embrace Curiosity—our strategic plan launched in the fall of 2023—and to look ahead at the priorities for the upcoming year.
Celebrating the CLASS OF 2025
Congratulations to the Class of 2025 as they look forward to their graduation ceremony tomorrow. We couldn’t be more proud of all they've accomplished at York.
The Class of 2025 Bursary Endowment campaign is close to 80% participation, so please consider donating today if you haven’t already. We are grateful for all donations, regardless of the amount. We look forward to celebrating this community effort at the reception tomorrow. Thank you!
