- Shenendehowa High School
Shenendehowa High School is a public
high school located inClifton Park, New York , part of New York's Capital Region. It is part of theShenendehowa Central School District and serves the district's 9th through 12th graders. Both of the school's two buildings are located on the district's main campus off of State Route 146. The recently expanded East building houses 10th through 12th graders, and the west building houses only freshmen.The original high school was built in the early 1970s and designed to be a model facility for its time. The design included plans for an inground pool and a building-wide
closed-circuit television network complete with a broadcast studio and television sets in every classroom. Eventually the district found itself without enough budget money to fund both projects. Polls were taken of the students and faculty to gauge majority interest, and eventually the television network was chosen and implemented. The area set aside to house the pool was utilized as a weight room, and the school enjoyed student run news broadcasts and educational films in the classrooms. Over the next twenty years, maintenance and upgrades were neglected and by 1990, the studio had been dismantled with its space converted for use as a computer lab.Fact|date=July 2007The high school has a variety of extra curricular opportunities, including shop class, home economics, and a butchering class taught by alum Drew Ambrosy.
