YPA - November 12, 2026

Follow the YPA on Instagram @yorkschoolypa

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.

Parent Socials for each grade have started + have been AMAZING!

These events are vital to our community. Each grade has a fun evening together, ensuring everyone feels connected and supported for this school year - and beyond.

Thank you to all who

  • coordinated

  • hosted

  • attended

Your involvement is what makes our community so strong + so special.

Parent Socials are in Full Swing!

What is The YPA Exec?

Our YPA Exec Committee met this week, working to enhance the York experience for kids + parents alike. 

The YPA Exec:

  • plans events

  • liaises with the school

  • supports our team of amazing YPA Grade Parent Reps

These year-long volunteer roles within the YPA are definitely worth checking out when we call for 2027/28 (!) volunteers in the spring.
