Masks are optional starting Wednesday

February 27, 2022

Dear Fort Plain Central School Community,

At 2 p.m. today, Governor Hochul held a press conference regarding the state mask mandate. She said that as of March 2, the mandate will be lifted. Masks will be optional starting Wednesday.

As we gather additional information from the state, we will send out a letter to everyone making sure we have all of the details. We will continue to work with the local health department as we move forward to follow the metrics as they relate to cases, infection rates and hospitalizations.

As we all know, this has been a long journey, and I would like to personally thank everyone for their patience, resolve and commitment to ensuring that we followed the plan and in turn, made sure people were safe.

Sincerely,
Jeffery Ziegler
Interim Superintendent
