2020-21 W!SE Blue Star Schools

As a result of outstanding results on the W!SE (Working In Support of Education) Financial Literacy Certification Test, York High School and York River Academy have been named "Blue Star Schools" for the 2020-21 school year. This national standardized test is administered to students after a course or unit on personal finance.

To earn this coveted award, a school must have achieved an 80% passing rate on the Financial Literacy Certification Test and have either a majority of students on a given grade level receive personal finance instruction or a minimum 10% of school enrollment taking the Certification Test. Congratulations to the students and teachers on this achievement!
