Share your thoughts: feasiblity study ThoughtExchange now open
Dear Fort Plain CSD Community,
We’re about midway through our feasibility study exploring the possibility of joining the Canajoharie and Fort Plain school districts into a new, unified district. At this point, we’re reaching out again to invite your thoughts, questions and ideas through a new ThoughtExchange process.
Your input is crucial as we consider the impact and potential of this initiative.
This study aims to understand the potential benefits, challenges and effects of centralizing our districts. It is focused on three main areas:
- Educational experiences: Will this benefit students and improve the quality of education?
- Organizational capacity: Can we improve resource sharing and overall efficiency?
- Financial sustainability: Would centralizing help with long-term financial stability and wise use of resources?
We’re looking at factors like the quality of education, efficient use of resources and fiscal responsibility to see if joining the two districts could lead to stronger, more sustainable schools.
The study will help us decide if this change can improve educational outcomes and support a vibrant, well-rounded school community.
View documents related to the study’s progress, to-date.
Share your thoughts on this process through ThoughtExchange
This next ThoughtExchange will allow you to:
- Share any questions or thoughts you have about the study’s progress so far.
- Review and rate the ideas of others to help us see what’s most important to everyone.

Thank you for helping us make informed decisions for our schools. Your voice is a valuable part of this conversation about our future.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Lauren Crisman, Superintendent

2024-25 student transportation news and updates
The following is a message from Fort Plain CSD Transportation Supervisor Gary Ruszkowski sent to families on Oct. 18, 2024
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We hope this message finds you well.
We want to inform you about an important update regarding our school bus transportation system.
Effective on Monday, Oct. 21, 2024, buses will no longer pick up students who are not part of the regular bus route. This decision has been made to ensure the safety and well-being of all students while they travel to and from school.
We continue to provide a high-quality transportation service. Please be aware, however, that there may be occasional delays with pick up or drop off times due to bus driver shortages. If any delays are expected to be longer than 20 minutes, families/guardians will be notified via Parent Square.
As always, you can call the Transportation Supervisor at 518-993-4000 ext. 4001 or the Transportation Secretary at 518-993-4000 ext. 3059 to inquire about delays.
We kindly ask that you review and update your student’s pick-up and drop-off information if your child uses school provided transportation.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our students.
Sincerely,
Gary Ruszkowski, Transportation Supervisor
Voters approve Capital Improvement Project
Fort Plain Central School District residents voted on Oct. 3, 2024 to approve a $10,140,000 capital improvement project by a vote of 101 to 83.
The project will fund needed repairs and improvements inside and out of both Harry Hoag Elementary School and the Jr./Sr. High School. It will also enhance some of our well-used gathering spaces, such as the Jr./Sr. High School auditorium, and provide safer access to our athletic facilities.
Thank you to all who voted on this project and for your support of our students and schools.
