If your school year data is all consistent you could use the String.Substring(int, int) method. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aka44szs(v=vs.110).aspx

Ex: 

    dim String schoolYear = "2012-2014"          
    schoolYear.Substring(5,4)

Should return 2014

Let say you have

Dim String str = "2012-2013"

Then by using String.Split():

Dim strArr() As String
strArr = str.Split("-")

With strArr you will have:

'strArr(0) = "2012"`
'strArr(1) = "2013"
