What People Are Saying
"Obviously brilliant."
- Susan Patrick, formerly Head of the US Department of Education's Technology Office, now President of the North American Council for Online Learning, one of the "Top 10 Educators of the Last Decade"
"Yorktown is the best school in the world."
- Australian mother who has educated her child all over the world including Yorktown Education
"My life's work is how to best educate our children. As a mom, I wanted excellence in education and was sadly disappointed by my children's educational experiences. My children moved to Yorktown because I saw Yorktown applying the most up to date research on student learning to ensure every child achieves his or her potential. Yorktown was the only school I found putting into practice what research tells schools to do, which is to tailor instruction to the child, require high levels of mastery, and reward good work - principles that are hard to find.”
“I took my older child out of a local school's gifted IB program because this child felt held back by mediocre teachers and wasted time. I placed my second child at Yorktown because, though very smart, this child was less motivated and struggling to keep up. Now both children are turning out gifted level work at an accelerated pace. Both are happier and less stressed than before. As a mom, seeing them both achieve and relax makes me happy! I like that Yorktown recognizes all children have gifts and talents. Yorktown proves that a gifted level education is good for all kids. My kids prove it."
- Southern Methodist University Professor
“I really am amazed at the system you have developed. The options for students, parents, and teachers really are incredible. It seems that you have recognized all of the problems with the traditional school system and found a solution for everything. There has been so much criticism of public schools, but few have come up with real and effective solutions. Your group has my genuine admiration for coming up with an outstanding alternative. I'm a big believer in the free market system and think it is high time for a reasonable-cost, highly flexible, individualized alternative to become available to those who want top-notch education. I would be thrilled and incredibly proud to work for Yorktown..... I haven't been this excited about the future of education since I started my teaching career.”
