Finding the best educational environment for your child is one of the finest gifts you could ever give them.
Like most young minds beginning the journey toward learning, Yorktown Education students have an eagerness to discover; a passion to express themselves. However, there’s a significant distinction in the outcomes of Yorktown’s learning explorers.
From day one, Yorktown students are given the freedom to learn at their own pace, explore new ideas, and discover what they love most. They are free from unvarying tests, grades based on age, and other ill-defining parameters.
A shining example of the merits of a Yorktown Education can be seen in a recent 2020 graduate, Mya Hardee. Her story and her experience at Yorktown is compelling.
Mya Hardee spent seven formative years at Yorktown Education, graduating with a perfect grade point average in June, 2020. She takes with her 36 completed college credits which she earned from Collin College and Brown University while attending Yorktown. She will attend Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee, a small, selective liberal arts school, where she has received a $34,000 annual scholarship, totaling $136,000 after four years.
In her graduation speech, Mya spoke of the many friends and amazing teachers she has grown to know and love over the years at Yorktown. She recalls how she gained self-confidence and independence, learning to embrace challenges and achieve new skills to pave the way for future success. Because she felt supported and cared for at Yorktown, she was able to let go of concerns and embrace lifelong learning.
Mya’s parents have supported her efforts at Yorktown and contributed actively in school activities, school trips, and events. Mya Hardee is a prime example of a responsible student universally loved by her peers and teachers.
Yorktown Education is not for everyone, but it is an unparalleled place of learning for those who strive to achieve their highest and best. It’s a place where ardent work rewards the student with a lifelong love of learning. It’s a place to connect, to grow, to become. And it is a special place for self-discovery, giving students the freedom to find what they love most, then set upon a path to achieve their heartfelt goals.
