Hyde Park Elementary School is located on US 9 in Hyde Park, New York, United States. It served students from kindergarten through fifth grade in the Hyde Park Central Schools.
The school's original fieldstone building was built in 1940, after close consultation between the local school board and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a native of Hyde Park. He helped make federal funds available for construction, in order to promote the use of fieldstone, following the Hudson Valley's Dutch Colonial architectural heritage. In 1993 the school building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
It was closed and no longer used as an elementary school as of June 2012. The historic building now houses part of the district Universal Pre-K program, Pupil Services Offices, and the Technical Services Department.
