Writing of 3 Recent FCAHS Graduates Commended
A 2025 Fox Chapel Area High School graduate won a writing award, and the writing of two other members of the Class of 2025 was published as part of the 2025 Ralph Munn Creative Writing Contest.
Meera Reddy won second place and a $100 prize in the poetry category for her piece “Slam Dunk.” Meera also had a prose piece, “I’m Not Good Enough,” qualify for publishing in the 2025 “Ralph Munn Creative Writing Anthology.” Anna Delale-O’Connor had a short prose piece, “Dinner for One,” and Devon McDonald had a short prose piece, “Lying in a Puddle,” published in the anthology as well. These pieces were all submitted when the graduates were seniors at Fox Chapel Area High School.
The contest, sponsored by the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, was open to all high school students in grades 9-12 across Allegheny County. The entries of the winners and others are published in an anthology which can be viewed at https://www.yumpu.com/en/
This year, 43 teens' poetry and prose were published in the anthology. The work of the winners and honorees will be displayed during November at Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh’s main branch gallery. There will also be a gallery event November 8 to honor the students.
