Elementary Schools Set Story Times for Incoming Kindergartners

All four elementary schools in the Fox Chapel Area School District are hosting in-person story times for incoming 2023-2024 kindergarten students and their parents/guardians. The program is designed to prepare all prospective kindergarten students for starting school during the 2023-2024 school year (age 5 on or by September 1, 2023).

The story times will enable the incoming students to become acquainted with their elementary school and to enjoy a story and activity with the kindergarten teachers, and parents/guardians will gain valuable information regarding school readiness and kindergarten registration. Children and parents/guardians are encouraged to attend all the story times offered at their prospective school.
