A history of the Wallkill Central schools
About
"When the Borden family arrived in the nineteenthcentury, educational opportunities in Ulster County were limited; classes rarelyextended beyond the eighth grade. This changed when the philanthropic Bordensestablished their Borden Condensed Milk Companyand gave Wallkill the means to construct one of the area's first high schools. In1938, Central School District No. 1--incorporating the towns of Shawangunk,Plattekill, Gardiner, Marlborough, Newburgh and Montgomery--was formed afterresidents voted to consolidate the John G. Borden High School with surroundingone- and two-room schoolhouses. Although those early schoolhouses are now longgone, the proud tradition of education and service carries on in theLeptondale, Clare F. Ostrander and Plattekill Elementary Schools; the John G.Borden Middle School; and the Wallkill Senior High School. Local educators A.J.Schenkman and Elizabeth Werlau explore Wallkill Central School District's seventy-five years of educational excellence"--
