With your generosity, our school has been able to provide students with incredible enrichment programs that are not funded by the DOE. Your support of the YCS Annual Fund is an important component of our school’s ongoing success. With the calendar year ending soon, please consider a year-end, tax-deductible gift to YCS today so that our school and our students can continue to excel.

Our Third Annual Winter Blast will be held on Saturday, December 14th. This year’s event will be offered over two sessions and will include an interactive story with Rebecca Ashley (PK-2), improv workshop with Brook Berry-Wolf (2-5), hot cocoa, cookies, crafts and much more! Be on the lookout for the flyer in backpacks soon. More details and volunteer opportunities to follow!
