About

Beekman School is located at 201 Lime Ridge Road Poughkeepsie, NY. This school is part of the Arlington Central School District and the Board of Education is the official policy-making body for this school. The school attends to the educational needs for grades K through 5 and adheres to the belief that all students develop intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially at different paces. This public school is committed to the success of each child in a safe, supportive, and stimulating learning environment.

The Beekman School staff has a personal interest in developing students’ independent and creative thought, willingness to accept intellectual risks and challenges, forming superior work habits and cooperative, positive approaches to learning. While these attributes cannot always be precisely measured and adjusted, Teachers honor them and work energetically to foster their development. There is no doubt that the development of these skills brings with them not only a sense of academic achievement but also a feeling of pride and satisfaction.

The school has collaborative team teaching classes that mix children with special needs and those in general education. These classes have two teachers, one of whom is certified in special education. A mother whose son was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity said she was thrilled by the way the teachers and administration helped him focus and concentrate.
