Mount Vernon City School District (New York)

The Mount Vernon City School District (MVCSD) is a public school district located in Mount Vernon, New York. Consisting over 11 Pre-K through 8th grade neighborhood schools and two high schools, the district serves over 8,000 students from the City of Mount Vernon. In August 2015 the Mount Vernon Board of Trustees appointed Dr. Kenneth R. Hamilton as the Superintendent of Schools and with him a knew district-level administrative team committed to improving the school system and educational outcomes for the district's students. In March 2016, the District put forward a $108 million bond referendum tied to a 20/20 Vision for Academic Excellence. The bond referendum was approved by an overwhelming majority of district voters. The bond not only focused on facility upgrades and improvements, but was designed around an academic vision to convert the district's K-6 elementary schools to Pre-K through 8th grade neighborhood schools. The bond would also allow students choose between three high schools.It would also create the Mount Vernon STEAM Academy, A 9th-12th grade building, house in the former A.B. Davis Middle School, that would focus on Science, Technology, Arts, Engineering and Math Academy. Additionally, the bond would allow Nellie A. Thornton High School to become the permanent home of the district's popular Performing and Visual Arts Magnet Program for students in 6th through 12th grades. Mount Vernon High School would also undergo a renaissance under the approved bond referendum. The 20/20 Vision called for restoration of Mount Vernon High School's storied Career and Technical Education Program and the implementation of an International Baccalaureate program.
