Here is a look at this week's YCS athletics!
Mr. MacKenzie and his Freshman students traveled to Genesee County Fairgrounds today to attend GLOW With Your Hands, a hands-on career exploration event for GLOW Region students, which highlights high-growth and high-demand careers in Agriculture, Manufacturing, and Skilled Trades.
GLOW With Your Hands allows students to experience and participate in activities like welding, bricklaying, electrical wiring, heavy equipment operation, mechatronics, and so much.
Today was Mrs. Palmer's last day in the Middle/High School office.
The students showed her their appreciation for all that she has done
for them and the staff, over many years of service to York Central School.
This was not farewell - we expect to see Mrs. Palmer as she will be filling in for staff absences when needed.
Thank you Mrs. Palmer!
Congratulations to YCS Senior Wide Receiver Jake Pangrazio named Section V Offensive Player of the Week!
On these final summer days Mr. Keenan's 8th grade Technology students put the sun to the test with a solar project.
They designed a solar cooker in order to cook marshmallows and chocolate to make a s'more. The students started by researching solar cookers and looking at some past student examples, and from there they moved on to brainstorming, planning, and building their own design.
Finally, it was time to place their solar cookers outside and let the sun do it's job.
The students observed placement of their solar cookers, length of time in the sun and whether there was any cloud cover.
The best part of the project was when the chocolate and marshmallow were just right and ready to be placed between two layers of graham crackers.
Mmm! Delicious!
Wow! York Middle/High School Open House was a HUGE success! Thank you to our outstanding faculty and staff, students, parents, and families who attended!

Congratulations to Senior Grace Christiano on being selected to perform for the Rochester Area All State Festival . Seniors Adrienne Schroth and Indigo Freeman were selected as Area All State Alternates.
The three instrumentalists are students of Mr. Devin Vogel, YCS Middle/High School Instrumental and Music Theory teacher. Grace, Adrienne and Indigo auditioned against hundreds of students in multiple counties. To be selected to perform alongside the very best musicians from New York State High Schools is a huge honor - especially coming from a small school. YCS is one of three districts in the area to have a student receive this honor, and this is our second year in a row. The Rochester Area All State Festival performance will be at Rush Henrietta Central School on November 18, 2023, at 2 p.m.
Mrs. Dougal's sixth grade students are learning the elements of writing from developing their concept to writing the first draft, editing, and finally developing the final project.
