YORKTOWN, IN—Teachers, students, and leaders from Yorktown Community Schools broke ground on Friday, May 10, for a major improvement and expansion project at Yorktown High School. Construction will begin this summer and is scheduled to be completed before the 2025-26 school year begins.
The project will include comprehensive renovation of science classrooms in the school as well as improvements to the front entrance which will be designed to enhance security and visibility. A new 34,000 square foot sports performance facility, including versatile indoor practice space with two full-size indoor courts, an indoor track, and a new strength and conditioning facility will be added to the southeast corner of the school. These are the first major improvements at Yorktown High School in over thirty years. Since that time, enrollment at Yorktown High School has increased by more than thirty percent.
