TRADITION

York Public Schools became a school district on June 14, 1871. That's right; we'll celebrate our 142nd birthday in just a few weeks. When you stop and think about the pride and tradition that York Public Schools has it really leaves an impression. York Dukes are leaders across the state, nation, and world. We have alumni that are outstanding farmers, mechanics, electricians, nurses, attorneys, business owners, teachers, plumbers, physicians, contractors, cooks, military personnel, coaches, artists, musicians, actors, and much more.

It is great to see the active "alumni page" on Facebook and to see the pride that various graduates have when today's Dukes accomplish something noteworthy. I hope that ALL alumni feel good about the part they played in making York Public Schools a special place. Each and everyone that has a diploma from the York Dukes should be proud of the part they play in our storied tradition.

Let's all do our part to continue to make sure that being a York Duke means something special.

Go Dukes!
