Nearly 4,000 students headed back to class Aug. 22 in the Fox Chapel Area School District.
As is tradition, school administrators and board members hopped on the buses first thing in the morning and rode to the district’s six buildings along with the youngsters.
It’s a way to ease any anxieties and also make sure the children know that district staff is excited for the year, officials said.
They greeted the students, shook hands and exchanged high-fives in hopes of starting the year on a positive note.
