Greetings Bearcat Family!

Welcome to the School District of the City of York, home of the Bearcats. As Superintendent, I am proud to serve a community rooted in resilience, rich in culture, and committed to educational excellence. Each day, our dedicated staff works to create safe, supportive, and academically engaging learning environments where every student can thrive. 

There is something special about being a Bearcat. Whether you are stepping into one of our classrooms, attending a school event, cheering on our student athletes, listening to our phenomenal student musicians, or engaging with our families and partners, you will feel the energy, the purpose, and the pride that define who we are. I look forward to another year of growth, achievement, and unity as we continue moving forward together.

Yours in Education,

Andrea J. Berry-Brown, Ed.D.
Superintendent
