The YSC Academy Fund
The YSC Academy Fund is the cornerstone of our fundraising efforts and is vital to the Academy’s overall financial health. Like all independent schools, YSC Academy relies on unrestricted gifts to supplement tuition revenues. This is especially so given that YSC Academy intentionally keeps its tuition rates low. The YSC Academy Fund supports faculty, programs and scholarships, in addition to covering a host of other operating expenses. Currently, more than 50% of YSC Academy students receive financial aid. Without this financial assistance, these students would not have access to what has the potential to be a life-changing experience. The YSC Academy Fund helps bridge the gap between what tuition covers and what it actually costs to run the Academy so we can continue to empower our students to be the best they can be both on and off the field.
