YCSD Earns High Marks

The York County School Division is proud to announce its achievement as one of the top three school divisions in Virginia, and the top division in Hampton Roads. These rankings are according to Niche, a leading and prominent school ranking and review website. As noted during a presentation on per pupil expenses during Monday’s School Board Work Session, the two school divisions (Falls Church City and Arlington) ranked higher than YCSD spend approximately twice as much per pupil as YCSD annually.

This announcement came less than just a month after U.S. News & World Report released its ranking of the Best High Schools in Virginia for 2023-24 and our schools outperformed most high schools in the state. Both recognitions highlight the division’s mission to ensure every student is valued, supported and challenged through learning experiences, which prepare them for a successful future.
