About Us

The Mohonasen Central School District draws most of its students from the town of Rotterdam with some students coming from the towns of Colonie and Guilderland. Mohonasen is a Colonial Council school district that serves about 2,850 students in kindergarten through 12th grade. We have two elementary schools: Bradt Primary School, which serves students in grades K-2, and Pinewood Intermediate School, which serves students in grades 3-5. Draper Middle School serves students in grades 6-8 and Mohonasen High School serves students in grades 9-12.

Mohonasen students are actively involved in many music and theater performance groups, including the Mohon Masque Theatre Group, which has a reputation for outstanding performances and plays to packed houses year after year. Additionally, roughly 40 percent of all students are involved in at least one interscholastic sport.
