District overview

Rondout Valley Central School District

What the district's public Board recordings show about its budget, schools, and current changes.

What is shaping Rondout Valley's budget?

Falling enrollment and benefit costs are driving budget changes.

The elected Board of Education governs Rondout Valley. In 2026 it discussed a budget gap tied to rising costs and fewer students, while approving a new grades 4–8 middle school structure and changes to staffing.

Budget pressure

The Board's April 7 presentation described a $4.4 million gap before planned fund-balance, reserve, revenue, and staffing measures.

New middle school

The Board approved combining the junior high and intermediate schools into Rondout Valley Middle School for grades 4–8.
