In 2014, Chancellor Carmen Fariña launched the Showcase School programs to recognize, celebrate, and share promising practices across New York City Department of Education schools. Yorkville community school is one of just 26 schools across the entire DOE selected to be a part of this program for the 2015-16 school year. With the support of the Office of Interschool Collaborative Learning, Showcase Schools each host three visits where visitors will learn about specific practices, the conditions that contribute to their growth and sustainability, and the story of how they came to be.
