Spackenkill High School is a high school in Poughkeepsie, New York. ==History== Spackenkill Union Free School District was chartered by the New York State Legislature in 1865 and is one of the few remaining union free school districts within the state. The name Spackenkill stems from Spack's Creek. Spackenkill is a Dutch interpretation of the Indian words for "speaking waters." Spackenkill High School was established in 1973, after a referendum was passed, since residents of the area disliked the idea of their children transferring to Poughkeepsie High School after graduating from Orville A. Todd Middle School. Though the proposition was questioned, the majority of the residents passed it to purchase land for a high school, a necessity for the fast-growing Spackenkill School District. Construction began in 1970, and ended in 1973. The first class graduated in 1974. Since then, it has been among the premiere free, public institutions in upstate New York gaining national acclaim in 2010. On average, its graduating class sends 15-20 seniors to Ivy League universities and other top tier schools in the nation. Similarly, Spackenkill's baseball and soccer teams are among the most competitive in the state.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History and Demographics )〕 Spackenkill's recent construction includes the adding of a new elevator, science classrooms, conference rooms, and a black box theatre. The high school is also adding additional wings, windows, art rooms, weight rooms and renovations to the library. The school's Odyssey of the Mind team has had a long history of successes including 2 world championships.
