Superintendent's Message
York Suburban is a community known for its schools’ quality and graduates’ excellence. During my 18 years serving the District, I have had the pleasure of experiencing numerous moments of pride, excitement, and joy through my involvement in the school community. I have also witnessed personal growth and fulfillment from our students in the classroom, on stage, and in the athletic arena. These experiences have exemplified our school community's strong commitment to preparing students for a BOLD future.
As superintendent, I am honored to lead this exceptional District, and I am committed to creating a learning environment in which each student achieves a personal pathway to success. Through the team's collaborative efforts and hard work, the District will continue its focus on educating and developing the whole child. Teaching and learning will remain at the heart of this endeavor. The District is fully committed to a dynamic curriculum that engages students in deep learning taught by highly qualified professionals. The aforementioned is accomplished by engaging our children and families through diverse offerings and supportive services.
I encourage you to explore our District website and discover how you can become more involved with our school community. I could not be any prouder of what we have accomplished together, and I look forward to collaboratively inspiring a BOLD future in each student we serve!

Superintendent Advisory Groups
Again this school year, Dr. Krauser, Superintendent, will be meeting with three advisory groups. The purpose of these groups is to improve communication and strengthen partnerships between the District and its stakeholders.
Group 1: Parent Council
Parents play an important role in promoting the social, emotional, and academic success of all students. This council provides the Superintendent and other district staff with feedback from different family perspectives. Ideally the group has diverse representation from all corners of our District. Meetings will be held in October, December, February, and April.
Group 2: Community Advisory
Community members, leaders, and service providers play a valuable role in helping the District prepare its students for success after graduation. The goal of the Community Advisory is to discuss a variety of topics, share information and broaden understanding of school-related issues. We are particularly interested in involvement by local businesses, nonprofits, health and human services, real estate professionals, alumni, etc. Meetings will be held in October, January, and May.
Group 3: Student Advisory Student Advisory
The student advisory group will be formed with the assistance of high school administration.
Annual Performance Objectives & Evaluation
The Board must formally evaluate, in written form, the Superintendent and the Assistant Superintendent by the end of each fiscal year.
During their evaluations, the Board determined Dr. Scott Krauser, Superintendent, and Dr. Rebecca Lorfink, Assistant Superintendent, met their 2024-2025 Objective Performance Standards.
The performance objectives for Dr. Krauser corresponded with the three focus areas:
- Increase professional growth and development opportunities for the Team of 10 and assist in Board Goal development.
- Facilitate the transition of a new Chief Financial and Operations Officer and Business Office Functions.
- Expand the participation of Student, Parent, and Community Superintendent Advisory Groups.
