[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yorktown is a top rated high school and I don't think you should hesitate to send your child there for academic reasons. I don't find the overcrowding to be much of a problem for our children but if it would bother your kid and you want to spend the extra money on a private school then obviously you can make that choice. I personally would not spend the money in a county with such good public schools. A student who takes intensified and AP classes will get a great education and be competitive for college applications.[/quote] For the areas it serves, it seems to punch below its weight.
