The Fund for Advancement of Minorities through Education’s Annual Information Fair will take place on Saturday, Nov. 21.
Attendees will learn what college-preparatory education opportunities African American students can access through FAME’s independent partner schools and the programmatic support. It will take place at the Kingsley Association in East Liberty, located at 6435 Frankstown Ave., from 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
FAME is an active participant and stakeholder in the education equity and access discussion. With the demand for school choice and the struggles of the public school system, FAME’s work—to address the need and keep finances from being the barrier around the best educational institutions in Pittsburgh—is vital. Current FAME scholars represent many school districts in the area, including, Gateway, McKeesport, Penn Hills, Pittsburgh Public Schools, Seneca, Sto-Rox, Wilkinsburg and Woodland Hills.
FAME welcomes talented and motivated students and families to the Information Fair to introduce them to our partner schools: The Ellis School, The Kiski School, Shady Side Academy, St. Edmund’s Academy, Sewickley Academy, Western Reserve Academy and The Winchester Thurston School.
