School Leadership

At York House, our Leadership Team inspires excellence across academics and operations. Working to ensure our school’s success and long-term sustainability alongside our Head of School, the Leadership Team brings our ambitious Spark strategic plan to life—where tradition meets innovation, and every decision advances our mission. We are laser-focused on our plan to create future-ready learners with diverse skill sets.

With our Board of Governors, the Leadership Team charts brave paths forward, cultivating an environment where faculty and staff thrive as innovators, and forge powerful community connections. Always learning and evolving, they're committed to keeping York House at the forefront of educational excellence, where every Yorkie finds their own unique path and purpose and graduates ready to embrace the future.
