REASONS
THAT MAKE YSGA THE
BEST SCHOOL CHOICE
THAT MAKE YSGA THE
BEST SCHOOL CHOICE
01 HIGH DEMAND & PRESTIGIOUS LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
YSGA hosts an annual lottery for new enrollment. Families who are selected become part of a learning community with high expectations and a focus on quality education, setting scholars up for success. The demand for enrollment has grown exponentially over the years. We are currently undergoing a building expansion. This project will add additional classrooms, a modern gymnasium, a brand new art/music room, and a state-of-the-art STEAM Lab.

02 exceptional educators, exceptional outcomes
At YSGA, we believe that outstanding teachers are the cornerstone of a successful education. That's why we prioritize recruiting and retaining a team of highly qualified educators. All of our teachers are PA-certified. These elite educators bring passion, innovative teaching methods, and foster a love of learning that directly impacts student growth and long-term success.

03 INNOVATIVE STEAM CURRICULUM
YSGA emphasizes STEAM education starting in Kindergarten, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas from an early age. The Science/STEAM Lab is equipped with the latest technology and resources. It is utilized to establish a Robotics team that will compete in statewide and national competitions, preparing our scholars for successful careers in the ever-evolving fields of STEAM.

04 SAFE & CLOSE-KNIT COMMUNITY
Safety is a top priority at YSGA. We maintain structured policies, foster a nurturing atmosphere, and implement proactive measures to ensure our scholars can focus on learning without distractions.

05 extra-curricular ENRICHMENT & SUPPORT
YSGA offers additional academic support through tutoring during after-school programs and Saturday schools, which are free of charge to parents. We also offer a diverse range of clubs, sports teams, and extracurricular activities beyond regular school hours. Parents have peace of mind knowing their children are in a nurturing environment that promotes learning, teamwork, and personal development.
