2024-2025 FOX CHAPEL AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT # FCProud
A MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT
Dear Fox Chapel Area Community,
As we move through fall – a season of reflection and gratitude – I find myself especially thankful for this place we call home. Our school community is vibrant and growing, and it’ s filled with neighbors who care deeply about our schools and the children we serve. Every day, I see families, coaches, and community partners stepping up – organizing youth programs, volunteering time, and investing resources – to ensure our students have every opportunity to learn, compete, create, and serve.
I wish you could see what I see every day. Within our hallways and classrooms are caring adults who deeply believe in educating the whole student – helping each child thrive not only academically, but also socially and emotionally.
Our district’ s vision is rooted in belonging and the education of the whole child, and we live that vision through four pillars: purpose, passion, care, and community. The State of the Schools on the following pages highlights the many ways those pillars come to life, from scholarships and national recognitions to service projects, artistic achievements, STEM competitions, and excellence in athletics. Behind every accolade is a story of dedication: students setting goals and working hard, teachers designing rich learning experiences, staff members going the extra mile, and families and community members showing up with encouragement and pride.
As you read our annual report, I hope you share my gratitude for our students’ resilience and character, for the professionalism of our faculty and staff, and for a community that believes in its public schools. Thank you for your continued partnership and your trust in us. Together, we will continue to lead with purpose, ignite passion, care for every learner, and support our community – both for today and for years to come.
Sincerely,
Dr. Mary Catherine Reljac Superintendent
