Lights, camera, action!
Students share the news of the week on the new Fort Plain Network
New this school year, students in the high school’s Multi-Media Production class have been honing their skills while reporting and sharing school news and happenings in a weekly broadcast on the in-house Fort Plain Network (FPN).
“The idea for these broadcasts has been a couple of years in the works,” said teacher and Educational Technology Specialist Rachel Heroth. “Last year we offered a Video Production class that the students really enjoyed. The Multi-Media class, which is new this school year, and the FPN project have expanded on that. They include so many hands-on and authentic ways for the students to learn new skills, to try new things and be creative. It is also a good way to serve our school community.”
Gimme a beat!
Many of this year’s FPN news team caught the news “bug” early on while producing the sixth grade Hilltopper Herald school newspaper with Harry Hoag teacher Matt Heiser. Trying their hand at broadcast news was a logical next step.
Though members of the school news team say it can be a challenge to be “camera ready” so early in the morning (class is the first period of each school day) and meeting weekly deadlines takes dedicated effort and organization (often free periods and evenings, too!), all say they are enjoying the FPN experience and positive feedback their efforts have received.
Broadcasts are planned, written and produced each week by the students in the Multi-Media Production class. And while students are gravitating to roles they most enjoy, they are also given regular opportunities to try new parts of the production and develop skills with these, too.
“This is about student learning, so I really try to keep the entire production in their hands,” said Heroth.
Junior Jordan Brown, who along with sophomore Emma Cook research and write each week’s script, chose this class to fill an elective requirement but is finding the experience fun and satisfying.
“I like writing and English is one of my favorite classes. I took a turn as anchor one week, but like writing the script most,” Brown said. “I like the creative aspect of putting together the news because every video is different, but there is still a sameness to what we do each week.”
On-camera personalities Sean Gutermuth, Jacob Herringshaw and Madison Stuart say they weren’t comfortable immediately with being in front of the camera, but are settling into and enjoying the role of being the ones who deliver the week’s news
Great things from humble beginnings
Like many great productions, the Fort Plain Network (FPN) has had humble and homespun beginnings. The studio is in a high school classroom. The “green screen” that students deliver the broadcast in front of was hand painted this past summer by Heroth and her family. Even the episode “clapper” and teleprompter were produced in-house by students in the school’s Technology and Design class.
That said, production values are high and the news is of-the-moment. The team takes care to include content that will matter to their peers and the larger school community. Along with the week’s regular news, recent special segments have focused on such topics as mental health and wellness, clubs, activities and volunteer opportunities.
“Part of the process involves planning a week ahead or sometimes more for the content we want each episode to include. But, just like network news, we are sometimes tweaking our script the day of filming depending on when we get submissions or if there is something ‘late breaking’ that we need to be sure to add,” Heroth said. “We are always learning how we can do more and do better.”

Learn about the Capital Improvement Project, Nov. 29 and Dec. 6
Dear Community Members,
On Wednesday, Dec. 13, 2023, the Fort Plain community will vote on a $18,655,000 Capital Improvement Project. The project aims to address needed repairs in Harry Hoag Elementary School and the Jr./Sr. High School. It will also enhance some of our well-used gathering spaces, such as the outdoor playground and areas within the athletic complex.
Every member of our school community has the potential to benefit from the work outlined in this proposed project.
I welcome you to join me for coffee and conversation about the Capital Improvement Project on Nov. 29 or Dec. 6, 2023 from 8:30-9:30 a.m. in the District Office Conference Room, 25 High Street, Fort Plain, NY. Community members, parents and other stakeholders are all welcome.
The student experience matters and this proposed project would address high priority maintenance issues derived from the most recent Building Conditions Survey. The executive planning team, which consisted of architects, financial advisors, school administrators and department supervisors, designed a project that is both respectful of our taxpayers and supportive of the vision for our schools and in the best interest of students.
Funding for this project will be paid for using the district’s reserve fund and bond borrowing that is reimbursable through New York State Education Department (NYSED) Building Aid.
On May 17, 2022, voters authorized the district to increase the balance in our Capital Reserve Fund. That action allows us to build the reserve fund up to $10,000,000. The authorization for this fund expires June 30, 2029. Currently, we have a balance of $7,015,000 in the Capital Reserve Fund. If approved, $2,780,000 from our reserves would help fund this project.
Bond borrowing in the amount of $15,875,000 would provide the additional funds.
The district formulated a payment plan for this proposal, in consultation with Bernard P. Donegan Financial Advisors, that maximizes our ability to use New York State Education Department (NYSED) Building Aid. The district is currently eligible to receive reimbursement through state Building Aid at a rate of 92.4%. If approved, this means the district would receive back approximately 92 cents on every dollar spent on this project. Please note: Building Aid ratios are not constant; these formulas are regularly adjusted by the state government.
It is a Board of Education goal to ensure the responsible use of both our fiscal and human resources. By taking advantage of our high Building Aid ratio, coupled with the utilization of a portion of the Capital Reserve Fund, the proposed project will not have any impact on the local tax levy.
Wishing everyone wellness always,
Mrs. Lauren Crisman
Superintendent of Schools
With gratitude: a message from District Superintendent Lauren Crisman
Dear Fort Plain CSD Families and School Team Members,
It’s that time of year again when we reflect on the blessings that have been bestowed upon us and show gratitude for them.
As I have traveled throughout our buildings during the fall, I’ve been amazed by the work that we do to support the development of our youth and to promote positivity in the community. FPCSD is a place where we help each other in big and little ways and care for each other daily. I am grateful to serve this community.
For our students and families, may this Thanksgiving recess be a well-deserved break where you can be joyful and laugh in good company.
For the school team, I hope that you are able to rest, rejuvenate and enjoy time with your loved ones.
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
Best,
Mrs. Crisman

Service and work-based learning—a win for students and the school community
Kevin Bogus Memorial Garden beautified – check. Weekend snack bags prepped for peers – check. Coffee served and Kristy’s Closet stocked – check and check.
Thanks for these and many other activities that support and enhance our school community go out to the learners in the Jr./Sr. High School Life Skills classroom of Dorene Goodwin.
“Our curriculum is designed to support the students in gaining essential academics and life skills. With all the activities we do throughout the school and to support the community, the students are learning by doing,” explained Goodwin.
Consider an activity such as preparing weekend snack bags for peers. Steps such as taking inventory, grocery shopping for essentials, preparing and then delivering the completed bags to each school site further the weekly project. They also offer students hands-on practice with subjects such as math and English Language Arts (ELA) and with practical life and workplace skills such as problem solving, teamwork, collaboration, customer service, perseverance and much more.
“What I like about the students participating in all of these projects around the school, is that it gives them a chance to build their own skills. It also allows them to give back to our community in ways that really matter,” Goodwin said.
November menus, new Fresh Bar option
This week, Fort Plain Jr./Sr. High School debuted its new Fresh Bar. Now, along with our daily lunch offerings, Jr./Sr. High School students can build-their-own-lunch from the Fresh Bar items.
With lighter options such as sandwiches and salad, yogurt, hummus, veggies, fruit and more, this addition to our jr/sr. high school lunch offering is already a big hit with students!

Enriching student learning—in and outside our classrooms
Throughout the school year, a host of fun field trips and enrichment activities help deepen our students’ learning. These hands-on and multi-sensory (learning with all the senses) experiences help bring classroom lessons to life… and may even inspire a passion or future career path!
Here are just a few fun examples of the enriched learning happening for students this fall:
- Kindergarteners recently donned their own helmets and climbed aboard a big red Fort Plain fire truck to learn about fire safety and the important job firefighters play in our community. This annual visit from the fire company helped mark Fire Safety Awareness Month and is just one of many ways our first responders and community helpers expand students’ learning throughout the year.
- Fall wouldn’t be the same without a trip to the orchard for apples and a wagon ride. After learning about the season and how apples grow, first graders visited Bellinger’s Apple Orchard for some apple picking, tasting and lots of other seasonal fun.
- The sweet smell of pumpkin spice filled the air as learners in our third-grade classrooms made (and got to sample!) fresh butter, pumpkin pie and homemade whipped cream. Thank you educator Wendy Richardson and the Cornell Cooperative Extension/Herkimer County for leading us in this fun and delicious culinary exploration.
- Meanwhile at the high school, youth participating in the OK2XL gifted and talented program shared lots of laughs and took in the beauty of the historic Proctors Theatre in Schenectady while watching the stage production of Mrs. Doubtfire. “This was a cool opportunity for students who would not otherwise get to see these shows,” said High School Junior Jasmine Lapi. “It is important for students to be exposed to these cultural events.” District and grant funding makes these and other types of dance, music, drama, media and visual arts experiences a possibility for students across the grades, in and outside of our classrooms.
We are so grateful for our many community partners, educators and area venues that help expand our students’ learning and help them grow in new and creative ways by sharing their knowledge and expertise.
