“We feel that this new format not only allows our students to train for excellence in a high-interest field, but will also provide a better opportunity for our students and their families to sit down at the dinner table together each night. Often times, families are having to seek out that extra training or work experience during evening hours and that takes away from the family dynamic,” said Administrator Aaron Sovern.

Yorkville Christian is currently accepting registrations for the 2015-16 school year. For more information, please visit http://www.yorkvillechristian.com or contact the school office at (630) 708-7927.
