One of the best school districts in the country!

YSHS is a great school for white, academically gifted students from well-to-do families. If you fall outside of this category, you will fall behind or feel ostracized. The school does not promote diversity of race, class or educational abilities. Students with learning difficulties were openly mocked by teachers in front of the entire classroom. Leadership is hapless and similarly can be "bought" by the wealthy/white families who attend this school.

I could not be more pleased with this school and their staff! My son attends Indian Rock and is a part of the Special Needs program and they are phenomenal. He has come so far his first year here and he’s so happy to go to school every day. We are grateful for the caring and passionate staff and the kindness and community we experience here.

I am a grandmother and was concerned about my granddaughter's capability to express her wants, desires and ideas. She would respond to questions asked, but very rarely initiated conversation or expressed her desires. Since she has been attending Valley View Center in York, PA I notice that she is very expressive. She talks about things that happened in school, on the school bus and at home. She tells me things she wants to do or what she wants to eat. I'm not a therapist, but I'm excited by the progress she's making at Valley View Center.
