With Your Help, We are Making York Castle a Better School
We will implement Class representatives each team representing their graduation year. Please volunteer for your graduating year. As Class representative, you represent the School in your efforts to promote alumni engagement and encourage financial support from members of your class.
Alumni are more likely to support the Annual Fund when contacted by a classmate, resulting in a stronger Annual Fund and this is only possible through the efforts of our Class Representative volunteers. Your work is critical to our success each year, and in the long-term. Class Representatives Volunteers also play a vital role in keeping classmates engaged by maintaining and promoting communication and by securing updated biographic information.
