Fox Chapel Education Fund/Nancy Jane Edelman Scholarship Fund

The Fox Chapel Education Fund/The Nancy Jane Edelman Scholarship was established at The Pittsburgh Foundation in 1992 by her family to celebrate and honor her twentieth year as a member of the Fox Chapel Area School Board. Mrs. Edelman is a graduate of Allegheny College, Meadville, Pennsylvania, with a major in Mathematics and a Master's in Education from the University of Pittsburgh. During her 23 years of service on the local school board, Mrs. Edelman was elected president six times. She also served as president of the Allegheny Intermediate Unit for five terms while devoting fifteen years to the efforts of that board. The scholarship is for graduating seniors or graduates of Fox Chapel Area High School pursuing further study in the broad math or science fields. Preference will be given to applicants who plan to teach math or science in public school but it is not required for consideration.
