the York School

  Founded by its present Head, Barbara Goodwin-Zeibots, The York School opened in 1965 as a pre-Kindergarten programme, grew steadily until 1978 when both a toddler and an elementary programme began and then opened its first Grade 9 class in the fall of 1995. Now, York occupies a unique position among Toronto-area independent schools.

  York's uniqueness is further enhanced by its new location as a Manhattan-style school in mid-town Toronto with easy access to community parks and the main subway and bus lines. Since moving to its mid-town location, York has completely renovated the school building, constructed a large, modern gymnasium and drama room and, this past September, opened a cafeteria/food service offering both a meal plan and snack purchases.
