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
