Keene Central School District is located at 33 Market Street Keene Valley, NY. This school system provides education for the community of Keene for grades K through 12. Keene received its charter on 19 March 1808. The small, rural hamlets of Keene and Keene Valley are located in Essex County, New York. The Keene/Keene Valley region is approximately 12 miles from Lake Placid, NY. It consists of the hamlets of Keene, Keene Valley, and St. Hubert’s. It was formed from portions of Elizabethtown and Jay, and until 1848 it included all of the land now lying in North Elba, where Lake Placid has been the home to two Winter Olympics.

Keene Central School District is governed by a Board of Education comprised of five members elected by the community. Serving as a board member requires a commitment of personal time and effort with no fiscal remuneration.

Board members serve terms of three years. They obtain their authority from the New York State Education Law and other relevant statutes. The New York Education Law defines a school board’s general power and duties. Generally a school board oversees the district’s affairs for the student’s education, personnel and properties.
