Coverage area
The district's territory covers substantial parts of the towns of: Beekman, La Grange, Pleasant Valley, Poughkeepsie, and Union Vale. The district also includes small parts of the following towns: East Fishkill, Hyde Park, Pawling, and Wappinger.[5]
Census-designated places (hamlets) within this district include Arlington, Freedom Plains, MacDonnell Heights, Pleasant Valley, Titusville, and Vassar College, as well as portions of Red Oaks Mill.[5] Vassar maintains an apartment complex for faculty, which may house school-age dependents.[6][7]
Enrollment
As of 2011[update], ACSD had 9,724 students. In the 2009–2010 school year one elementary school, LaGrange, was shut down, its last day being on June 23, 2010.[8] Its building was converted into office space for the district.[9] Arlington Middle School was removed on June 20, 2014, and its building was converted into Arthur S. May Elementary School four days later. The previous Arthur S. May building from 1925 was closed on the latter date, and was repurposed into The Lofts at the School in late March 2023.[citation needed] Both structures had served as a high school for the district in the past.[10]
