Ellenville Middle School

Ellenville Middle School educates students in grades 6 through 8 in the Ellenville Central School District, based in Ellenville, New York, United States and serving that village and much of the surrounding town of Wawarsing, including Cragsmoor. It is located between the district's elementary and high schools behind the district offices off Maple Street in the village.

Like the other two buildings, it was rebuilt in 1996. A 69,500-square foot (6,255 m²) addition was built at that time. It is connected to the high school via an enclosed walkway from the southwestern corner.

All students in the school are assigned to one of three "academies" within it, for all grades: Lincoln, Jefferson or Washington. In 2002, the school experimented with a partial return to single-sex education, offering some subjects in all-male or all-female classes, an experiment which the principal supported as it had, he believed, worked well when it had been done in the nearby Liberty school district. Parents had the opportunity to opt their children out, but only 15-20% did so. The three-year pilot program was ended in 2005, although the district claimed it had seen improvements in attendance and discipline during the first year. In 2003, the school was classified as a "School in Need of Improvement" under the U.S. No Child Left Behind Act due to an insufficient number of students taking the state's eighth-grade English Language Arts and math tests. which the principal blamed on student absences on test days. A year later the school had sufficiently improved, but in 2007 it again fell short.

That year the school also began a joint program with The Nature Conservancy, which manages the nearby Sam's Point Preserve along the nearby Shawangunk Ridge near Cragsmoor. Part of a movement called "place-based education", it uses the natural resources of the preserve to help students learn not only math and science skills but also area history.
