About Us

Washingtonville is nestled in the iconic Hudson Valley, just west of the Hudson River and 60 miles north of New York City. It is the home of the Brotherhood Winery and only 20 minutes from West Point and Woodbury Commons. Our residents are passionate about their schools, which shows in the support they give each year to our academic, athletic, and arts programs.

Washingtonville offers Pre-K through Grade 12, serves a population of over 3,700 students, and is composed of three elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The District is among the highest graduation rates in Orange County at 93 percent, 13 percentage points above the New York State average.

PHILOSOPHY

We are committed to the intellectual, cultural, physical, and emotional growth of our children in a safe and supportive environment. We believe that our primary responsibility is to educate all students to reach their greatest potential. We desire to have our students acquire knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of nature and civilization. We endeavor to teach students the skills to make choices and to develop talents that build self-esteem. It is our challenge that the students of the Washingtonville Central School District become caring, contributing members of the community, the nation, and the world.
