Fort Ann Central School District

We have answered some frequently asked questions regarding the mandated COVID-19 testing of 20% of our school population, should we reach a 'Yellow Zone."

The district is preemptively seeking your permission to have your child tested for COVID-19, should we become a “Yellow Zone.” Attached to this letter is a consent to test form and we are asking that you please complete and return the form to school with your child.

This winter, the Fort Ann Central School District has made the decision to opt for traditional snow days, especially during this very untraditional school year.

We will be closing the building to all Middle School and High School students on Monday, December 14, 2020, through Wednesday, December 23, 2020. The building will be closed to all Elementary students for 24 hours on Monday, December 14, 2020.

On December 3, 2020, the district learned that an individual in the Elementary School tested positive for COVID-19. As of now, we will be closing the Fort Ann Central School Building on Friday, December 4, 2020, for a 24-hour period.

Over the Thanksgiving break, the district learned that an individual in the Jr. High School tested positive for COVID-19.

While the COVID-19 infection rate in Washington County remains low, if/when our school identifies as an orange or red zone, we will have to transition into a fully remote model.

As the holiday travel season approaches your county Public Health team and your school leadership wants to remind families about the New York State travel advisory and how it can impact your child’s ability to attend school.
