Kinderhook Schools

Kinderhook Central School District is located at 2910 Route 9 Valatie, NY. This district accepts students from grades Kindergarten through 12th in Columbia County of New York. The public school system was formed in 1954, incorporating seven community schools into one centralized district. Currently there are five buildings; two are named for the district's favorite sons - Martin Van Buren and Martin H. Glynn. Van Buren, who made his home in Kinderhook, served as a New York state attorney general, vice president under Andrew Jackson and as the eighth president of the United States. Glynn, raised in the village of Valatie, served as a U.S. representative, as well as the governor of New York from 1913 to 1915.

Ichabod Crane High School, located on Route 9 in the town of Kinderhook, currently serves a population of approximately 680 students in grades 9 through 12. Ichabod Crane Middle School houses students in grades 6 through 8. The two elementary schools, Martin Van Buren, in the village of Kinderhook, and Martin H. Glynn, in the village of Valatie, serve students in grades 3 through 5. The Primary School is home to kindergarten through grade 2.

Full of history, the district is home to many unique sites such as Martin Van Buren National Historic Site and the Columbia County Historical Society, which maintains the Columbia County Museum, Vanderpoel House, Van Alen House and the 1920 Ichabod Crane Schoolhouse.
