Board Members:

Minisink Elementary

The elementary school on the Minisink Valley campus currently enrolls 665 students in grades K-2. It is housed in the original Minisink Valley School building, built in 1958. At first the building served grades K-12, but was relieved of its large capacity with the building of a high school in the 1970s. Today the building is shared, with the elementary school in one wing and the intermediate school in the other.

Otisville Elementary

The Mary P. Bonen Otisville Elementary School consists of approximately 400 students with 16 classes in grades K-5. The school joined the Minisink school district in 1973, before which time Otisville was a K-12 school. The current principal is Julia Downey. The current assistant principal is Nikachi Griffin. A new building has been erected in Otisville to meet the growing class sizes, which can be partially explained by the population increase of the region due to suburbanization.

Intermediate School

The intermediate school is located on the main Minisink campus. Formed in 1991, the school is found in one wing of the original building (the elementary school is in the other wing.) Currently the intermediate school has approximately 900 students in grades 3-5.
