Welcome to York Prep
At York Prep, we guide students to discover their unique path to academic, social, and personal success. Our holistic approach encourages students to explore what they love, develop a growth mindset, and build a strong foundation of academic skills and strategies that serve them for life.
Students are supported by a world-class team of educators, including teachers, learning specialists, counselors, coaches, and deans. With this team, students learn to navigate conflict with empathy, develop resilience, and adapt with confidence to an ever-changing environment.
Located in the heart of the Upper West Side, York Prep offers a rigorous college preparatory curriculum, with exceptional arts, robust athletics programs, and a faculty deeply committed to student growth. Here, students are empowered to look within to understand who they are, and to seek out opportunities to be thoughtful leaders, collaborative peers, and lifelong learners.
