YPA - October 29, 2026
The York School Parents’ Association (YPA) plays a large part in contributing to this vibrant community. The YPA is a volunteer organization that conducts events that increase school spirit and camaraderie. The YPA also encourages volunteerism and raises funds to support the school. All parents and guardians of current students are automatically members of the YPA.
Full information about the YPA, who we are, what we do, and how you can get involved, is available on the school intranet - YorkNet.
Questions? Please feel free to contact us at ypa@yorkschool.com.

THANK YOU YPA!
Thank you to the Grade 1, 2 and 11 parents for the delicious treats and snacks today! Please see our thank you notes in the document below.
BUILDING CONNECTIONS
The big table stayed busy as parents came + went during Thursday morning’s drop-in coffee.
Members of our YPA Parent Connects Committee welcomed a great mix of returning + new-to-York parents.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by for coffee + great conversation!
Stay tuned for the next event + another way to connect within our community
