York Comprehensive High School is the sole high school in York County School District 1. Dr. John Tharpe serves as principal.[2] The school is located in York, South Carolina.
Due to the growth and aging of the original building, a new high school was built. The new high school is on Alexander Love Highway. The new campus will accommodate grades 9 - 12. Ninth graders had been housed at York Junior High for several years because the old York Comprehensive could not handle a large number of students. The new campus is designed to hold 1,800 students.
York Comprehensive athletes will compete in Region IIII - AAAA. Other schools in the region are:
York's arch rival in sports is the Clover High School Blue Eagles. The rivalry is one of the oldest in the state.
In May 2015, the school became the center of a national controversy when it banned the act of flying large flags from vehicles on the school grounds. Soon after posts on social media, this ban got national attention, mostly due to the perception that this policy was an attack on the American flag itself. In response to protests and threats of litigation, the school reversed the flag ban, allowing the American flag to be flown on vehicles.[5]
