Logos Academy is a private K-12 school in York, PA, accredited by the Middle States Association, and registered with the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Since its founding in 1998, Logos Academy has built a tradition of providing an excellent education that is affordable for all families in York, reserving two-thirds of classroom seats for students who live below or near the federal poverty line. In the 2019-20 academic year, the full per-student tuition rate was $9,530, but due to the generosity of our local community, the average student paid $2,041 to attend Logos Academy. Last year, 99% of our students received tuition assistance. Founded in 1998 with 14 kindergarten and first-grade students, Logos Academy has grown to over 270 students. Logos Academy provides an ideal learning environment in small class sizes through the following five core values.
CHRIST CENTERED
We seek to know Jesus, be led by His Word and Spirit, and be shaped by the Gospel. We recognize Jesus as the King of all creation. This reality gives meaning and purpose to everything we do. We commit ourselves to showing respect (for God, people, education, and creation), taking responsibility, and seeking to repair the brokenness in our lives and in our world.
CULTURALLY DIVERSE
We recognize and celebrate diversity as a gift from God and a demonstration of God’s love for us. We value diversity in our students, families, staff, and city. God has brought us together from various cultural, socioeconomic, denominational, and educational backgrounds. Divided, we all become weakened and impoverished. Together, we are empowered and enriched, building bridges of brotherhood through the love of Christ.
COMMUNITY MINDED
We foster intentional community between our students, families, and staff. Logos Academy also strives to be a good neighbor to our broader community. Jesus commands us to love our neighbors and to seek the peace and prosperity of our city.
CLASSICALLY EDUCATED
We cultivate students in the Classical tradition of education to become people of wisdom, grace, and virtue in service to God’s Kingdom. This time-tested approach to human formation fosters students who are effective communicators and creative, critical thinkers. As students develop a biblical worldview, they learn to love truth, beauty, and goodness.
COLLABORATIVE FAMILY PARTNERSHIPS
We believe that a participatory family is critical to what we do during the school day. Parents and families are an essential part of the Logos Academy community, and we value each person’s involvement.
