Student supervision at school

While our school day operates from approximately 8:15 (Junior School) to 4:00pm (Senior School), we offer early morning athletic practices and band rehearsals and many more co-curricular offerings after school. 

For the safety of our students, Middle and Senior School parents are advised that their child(ren) must leave the campus by 6:00 pm each day when our direct supervision concludes. Students may not remain on campus unsupervised unless there is a York School evening program such as Arts Night etc, where there is adult supervision at school.
