Jr./Sr. High School Principal—next steps
A message to the Fort Plain community from District Superintendent Lauren Crisman
Dear Students, Parents and Caregivers,
I hope you each enjoyed a wonderful December vacation!
To welcome the new year, I write to inform you about the district’s plan to address the vacancy of the Jr./Sr. High School Principal. Read about the retirement of Dr. Deborah Larrabee.
The position of Jr./Sr. High School Principal has been posted to several recruitment platforms. We intend to conduct interviews during the third marking period. The district is committed to finding the best candidate to be the new building-level leader. View the posting and description of the Jr./Sr. High School Principal position.
Through January 26, the duties associated with the role of the building principal will be covered by the members of our existing administrative team. Mrs. Canallatos will provide instructional leadership support; Mrs. Coppolo will assist both buildings as the Testing Coordinator for NYS Assessments in Grades 3-8. Mr. Bertram will provide on site leadership to implement the day to day operations associated with running the Jr./Sr. High School and provide student conduct support.
It is the district’s hope to secure an Interim Principal by the start of the second semester to provide building-level leadership during the third marking period and possibly until the end of the year, if deemed necessary.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Darcie Jenks in the Jr./Sr. High School Main Office at 518-933-4000 ext. 2124. She will be happy to direct your call to the administrator who can best support you.

Dr. Deborah Larrabee, Fort Plain Jr./Sr. High School Principal, to retire
Please join us in wishing Dr. Deborah Larrabee well in her retirement.
Dr. Larrabee’s retirement, which will take effect on Jan. 3, was approved by our Board of Education at its Dec. 21, 2023 meeting.
Dr. Larrabee has served as an educator and leader in our Fort Plain schools for the past 22 years, as both a high school social studies teacher and class advisor and, since 2004, as the principal of the Jr./Sr. High School. Dr. Larrabee has had a significant and lasting impact on so many of our students and her colleagues across the district.
We are grateful for her service.
Next steps
The district is considering two options to best support the immediate needs of the Jr./Sr. High School students and staff, and allow us time to do a thorough search for the next principal.
A vacancy for an interim principal has been posted. View the posting and description of the Interim Jr./Sr. High School Principal position.
If there are not any interim candidates, the district will develop an internal coverage plan to delegate the building level leadership duties to our existing administrative team.
More information about our move to fill the Jr./Sr. High School Principal position will be forthcoming early in the new year.
For questions or concerns, please contact Mrs. Crisman at 518-993-4000 ext.1000.
