Ketcham High School was the district's only high school, 8 miles (13 km) away in Wappingers Falls. The 1973 graduating class was the first class to have completed four full years at John Jay HS.

The school is geographically surrounded by IBM East Fishkill. The presence of IBM in the area has fueled and helped to fund a model example of a high school engineering focus.
