History
Mynderse Academy was previously located at 12 North Park Street in Seneca Falls. Due to crowding issues, the school moved to its current location on Troy Street. The Park Street building, known as "Academy Square", currently houses offices for several businesses and service groups. On December 19, 2017, a Capital Project referendum was held, resulting in a vote of 178-31 in favor of the proposition. The major reconstruction will include a new bus garage and parking areas, renovated locker rooms, gymnasium, and science classrooms. The project will begin in 2019.
