Irvington is located approximately 23 miles north of mid-Manhattan where it enjoys impressive frontage views of the Hudson River. Irvington is named for the renowned author, Washington Irving, who lived in a cottage on Sunnyside Lane from 1835 to 1859.Washington Irving called it "a beautiful spot, capable of being made a little paradise." The Irvington School District encompasses a 4.5 square mile area, which includes the Village of Irvington, a portion of southern Tarrytown, and part of the unincorporated areas of Greenburgh.
The Village of Irvington residents take pride in the fact that the business district remains quaint and complete with essential shopping.

Restored factory buildings along the village's waterfront house upscale businesses, and scenic parks abound.

Four schools serve the District to achieve that mission: Dows Lane Elementary School (K-3), Main Street School (4-5), Irvington Middle School (6-8), and Irvington High School (9-12).
