Part of our mission at York Prep is that our students, "will possess a rich and diverse knowledge base that extends beyond the requirements of the state core." Ms. Hoffman's 3rd grade class is doing just that! Last week they researched topics that interested them and presented their finding to their peers. Topics included: clean energy, wildlife, the solar system, extinct plants and animals, the history of sports, famous inventors and inventions, and ancient Egypt. Great job increasing your knowledge and communication skills Patriots!

York Prep is focused on growing students of character who "make noble choices that will positively affect themselves and others." Our 4th grade classes put this into practice making warm blankets for local animal shelters. You are making a difference in our community!

Discovery Place was on campus yesterday conducting science experiments with our 2nd graders! Student , Aubrey Moss said, "I liked how she put the bouncy ball and balloons into the bowl (of liquid nitrogen). The ball froze and the balloons went flat, but got air back in them when she took them out because they warmed up." Thank you for an amazing educational experience!
