School Information Session (virtual) In-Person / Online
Will your child start Kindergarten or a new school in Philadelphia for the 2026-2027 school year? Will your family arrive to Philadelphia for school for the first time?
If you have any questions about the various types of school options in Philadelphia (public, charter, private, faith-based, online), or would appreciate support with identifying steps within the application process, this session is for you!
Families at Penn are invited to join us for this virtual session with Philly Schools Compass. They have created the "Family Guidebook: How To Navigate School Selection", which is also available by PDF. In our time together, we will take a deep dive into the guidebook, and leave room for Q&A. Additionally, questions can be submitted in advance through registration.
Register today!
The presentation portion of this virtual event will be recorded and emailed to registrants.

Philly Schools Compass, a project of Elevate 215, is designed to help Philadelphia families navigate their school search with confidence. Behind the Compass is a team of educators, strategists, and community leaders who share one goal: making sure all families have the information they need to choose the best school for their child.
