Queensbury Union Free School District sits in the shadows of the Adirondacks, but it ranks among the top school districts in the Capital Region for academics and fiscal efficiency. More than 3,000 students in grades UPK-12 attend school on a single campus.

The district mission is to empower all students to be lifelong learners, inspired to pursue their dreams and contribute to the global community. School board members, administrators, teachers, support staff, students, and parents all work together to fulfill this mission in tangible, measurable ways.

We believe that:
- Everyone has inherent worth;
- People are responsible for their choices;
-Every person is unique and has a gift or talent;
- Valuing diversity makes the community stronger;
- Honesty is essential for trust and integrity;
- Community flourishes when all individuals participate and contribute;
- Lifelong learning is essential for a meaningful life; and
- Persistence and hard work are attributes of meaningful achievement.

Queensbury is nestled in a region rich with cultural opportunities, indoor and outdoor recreational activities, historic landmarks, and scenic landscapes. Living in the foothills of the Adirondacks, residents enjoy skiing, sledding, hiking, biking, rock climbing, golfing, and more. Also nearby, Lake George and the Hudson River offer exciting water sports and great fishing.

Queensbury is home to outlet malls, antique shops, restaurants, the Adirondack Balloon Festival, and the Great Escape Six Flags theme park. It borders the City of Glens Falls, which offers art, history and children’s museums as well as a civic center that hosts a professional hockey team, concerts, high school sports competitions and more. U.S. News & World Report also named this area one of the nation’s 10 best housing markets.
