The Fox Chapel Area School District is seeking stakeholders to participate in empathy interviews for a community prosperity initiative on Friday, October 30.

During the summer, the Fox Chapel Area School District was named a recipient of a 2026 National Moonshot Grant totaling $50,000. Moonshot Grants invest in future-facing ideas to support schools and their communities.

The district, in partnership with the Center for Innovation in Education, are collaborating on an initiative titled “Building the Village: Schools as Infrastructure for Community Prosperity.”

Throughout the year, the district and the Center for Innovation in Education are co-creating a prototype of a Community Impact Council, a coordinating body comprising students, the school district, staff, municipal partners, and community organizations. The group will explore what it would take for the Fox Chapel Area to become a Blue Zone-aligned community, a place where people live measurably longer, healthier, and more connected lives because of the environments and social structures around them.

During your hourlong session, you will learn more about the initiative and interview a Fox Chapel Area High School student to help the district focus its efforts.

You can sign up for a time slot at bit.ly/BTVEmpathyInterviewSign-Ups. We hope to see you there!

This week is Digital Citizenship Week, which is dedicated to teaching students, families, and educators how to use technology safely, responsibly, and ethically.

Common Sense Media uses a P.I.E. framework to evaluate media.

• Persuade (P): Recognizing when a creator wants you to buy a product, vote, or take an action.
• Inform (I): Identifying content designed to teach, report facts, or explain a topic.
• Entertain (E): Spotting media made to amuse, tell a story, or provide fun.

You can learn more about the P.I.E. framework here ➡ https://www.commonsense.org/education/digital-literacy/slicing-up-media-with-pie.

This week is Digital Citizenship Week, which is dedicated to teaching students, families, and educators how to use technology safely, responsibly, and ethically.

Critical thinking is essential when reading and watching the news, but so is critical ignoring.

Help your child choose what information to pay attention to and what to ignore, based on its reliability and usefulness. Consider setting limits for notifications and screen time to filter out distractions and low-quality information. Also, show children how to avoid engagement bait by identifying content that tries to manipulate feelings. Not everything deserves a reaction or your attention, so empower kids to ignore, flag, block, and report accounts that push toxic content.

Screen Time lets you set limits on your student’s iPad and secure it with a passcode you choose. If you enable Screen Time, please share the passcode with your student’s teachers in case limits prevent the device from functioning normally in class.

To configure Screen Time, open the Settings app on your child’s iPad, tap Screen Time on the left side, turn on Screen Time, and follow the prompts to set a Screen Time passcode to control access to Screen Time settings. Do not share this passcode with your child.

Please contact the Fox Chapel Area School District help desk at https://www.fcasd.edu/community/community-help-desk if you have any questions or concerns about Screen Time.

The Fox Chapel Area School District uses filters and software used to comply with the Children's Internet Protection Act (C**A). The district enables built-in filters on devices before distributing them to students and supplements them as needed. As an extra layer of protection, all devices connected to the district's network are filtered through the firewall's content filters, in addition to any on-device content filter already in place.

Common Sense Media recommends the free OpenDNS home filtering option, as it is free, easy to use, and customizable. For additional content filtering options, contact your internet provider, as most offer free options for families.
