Minisink Valley High School

What Minisink Valley High School does

Minisink Valley High School is the grades 9-12 secondary school of the Minisink Valley Central School District, a New York State public K-12 system headquartered at P.O. Box 217, 2320 State Route 6, Slate Hill, NY 10973, and operating under Superintendent Brian C. Monahan with High School Principal Kenneth Hauck. The district was formed on June 30, 1955 when residents of 20 local school districts approved centralization by a nearly 3-1 margin, and the original Route 6 campus opened in September 1958. It now serves approximately 3,500 students across five schools (two elementary, one intermediate, one middle, and one high school) on two campuses spanning 115 square miles of Orange County, roughly 70 miles northwest of New York City, between the Hudson and Delaware rivers. Otisville Elementary merged into the district in 1972 and a new building opened in 2008; a separate high school building was completed in 1974, the middle school in 1991, and voters approved a $36.9 million capital improvement project in February 2017.

The school delivers a comprehensive New York State-aligned academic program paired with NYSPHSAA Section IX interscholastic athletics (varsity, JV, modified), arts and music programming recognized by NAMM's Best Communities for Music Education designation, Universal Pre-Kindergarten through six community preschool partners, and free breakfast and lunch for all K-12 students via the Community Eligibility Provision. Core technology includes the SchoolTool Parent Portal (web plus Android and iOS apps with push notifications) for grades, attendance, scheduling, and assessment data, and the BusPatrol AI-Enabled Stop-Arm camera system mounted across all 90 buses in the transportation fleet, which logs more than one million miles per year. Facility assets include an 8-lane, 25-yard natatorium open to community swim programs.

Funding is primarily via voter-approved property tax levies supplemented by New York State aid; the 2025-26 operating budget of $123,533,205 carried a 2.79% tax levy increase, and the proposed 2026-27 budget is $130,275,178. Education is free to district residents; the only direct-fee revenue streams are summer sports camps and community natatorium programming. The district is governed by an elected Board of Education (President Anthony Monaco since March 2026; Vice President Ruth A. Luis) under New York State Education Department oversight, with no parent company or private ownership.
