National Weather service updates in the last hour have confirmed the likelihood of tropical storm force winds in our area during the school day. As a result, all of our school buildings will be closed tomorrow. Our teachers will be available virtually during their office hours to help students with questions. Stay safe. Please note: York Prep's buildings will be closed tomorrow but all students will still work on their assignments virtually. Full-time virtual students will have their scheduled online classes tomorrow.

Attention Parents/Guardians: We are monitoring the storm and it's possible effects. We will be continuing on regular schedule at this time. Because we know that our families live in a large variety of locations across the county, we encourage families to monitor their personal situation and let us know if they are affected. If the situation changes as we monitor it, we will let you know no later than 6:00 am.
