Save the Date – 2021 Virtual Diversity Celebration Planned for April 28, 2021

Central York School District is pleased to share that we will hold our annual Diversity Celebration virtually on April 28, 2021. 

Our Virtual Diversity Celebration will feature performances from students spanning all grade levels, the presentation of our “Making A Difference” and “Resiliency” awards, and a Keynote Speech provided by Principal Kafele, award-winning educator, author and speaker. 

Principal Kafele was a highly-regarded urban public school educator in New Jersey for over twenty years, during which he distinguished himself in the classroom and as a school leader. As an elementary school teacher in East Orange, NJ, he was selected as the East Orange School District and Essex County Public Schools Teacher of the Year. As a middle and high school principal, he led the transformation of four different schools, including “The Mighty” Newark Tech, which went from a low-performing school in need of improvement to national recognition by the National Association of State Directors of Career Technical Education, and U.S. News and World Report Magazine recognizing it three times as one of America’s best high schools. Currently, Principal Kafele is an educational consultant and motivational speaker which enables him to travel extensively throughout America and internationally, spreading his empowering message of attitude transformation.

We are excited to welcome him to Central York School District and to share his message with our community. You can learn more about him on his website:https://principalkafele.com/

Please stay tuned for more details on the Annual Diversity Celebration and how to view the program as the month continues!
