Yankeetown School
Hello, and welcome to the web site of the Yankeetown School in Levy County. We are located in the beautiful, Big Bend area of North Central Florida. It is the ninth largest county, geographically, in Florida (comparable in size to the state of Rhode Island), with a sparse population of 33,408 residents. Levy County remains rural with vast, open-wooded areas, springs, and rivers, and more than 50 miles of coastline on the Gulf of Mexico.
The philosophy of our district is one that exhibits the following:
Extraordinary Customer Relations - recognizing we are public servants and communicating as such with our customers-students, parents, and employees.
A School District With Accountability - stressing academic excellence and sound fiscal management.
Trust - the most fragile, yet an essential attribute to the success of the educational initiatives for the School Board of Levy County.
Vision
The Yankeetown School team joins the parents and community to facilitate positive learning experiences for all students, regardless of background, in achieving success in school and life beyond.
Mission
The mission of Yankeetown School, its' parents, and community is to develop confident, responsible students who are academically well prepared, physically fit, and emotionally healthy. To accomplish this, we will encourage high individual achievement, develop critical thinking, foster creativity, and encourage individuality.
