Both of my children attended Fox. The teachers and support staff like the secretaries , lunchroom workers, and custodians are awesome and show they care about every single student. It really is the Fox Family there. They also have gym, art, music, and an extra science class where kids get to do rocket launches, eye dissections, and owl pellet dissections- it is very hands on and cool. Most districts don't have a class like this.

Fox Elementary is a wonderful school with excellent and caring staff.What I like best about Fox is that I really feel like the staff truly wants to build relationships with the students. The office staff is always so helpful and the teachers go above and beyond. Fox has quite a few opportunities for kids to get involved both before and after school. Check out their website.The PTO also does a great job with many family activities and events. I am so glad my children attend Fox!

I went to fox for all of elm. school, I am now going into ninth grade. My time there was great, I had wonderful teachers who clearly cared for their students as well as made learning fun. However, most of them are retired now and I am afraid that that means Fox looses much of what makes it special.The principle is horrible, HORRIBLE. Also, as i got older I found that so many activities were aimed at the younger kids instead of all. What I am trying to say is, when I was there Fox was great! But now... from what I hear through friends with siblings and what now this is not the case. I feel like the school seems slightly poor, however all schools are experiencing this to a certain degree. My friends I often joke about how "ghetto" it is, although it isn't, not really. Many of the students are, but the school isn't. Oh, and Fox has a lot of playgrounds which is really cool. The music teacher was ammmaazzziinnnggg but unfortunately, she passed away this year. The other special teachers are wonderful as well. Honestly, Fox was great for me and it certainly has the potential to be great, it just needs to fix a few things:)

My children attended Fox Elementary and the curriculum is outstanding. But the principal needs to retire, due to her lack of professionalism and when you fabricate to keep your parents/community involved it's time to GO!!!!!!. (Parents do talk among each other) They need to be more diverse with all their students. All children can learn but we learn in different ways...

My children have been attending Fox Elementary School since Kindergarten. They have consistently had caring, enthusiastic teachers that really act like they are invested in the education of my daughters. Their Specials teachers (art, science, music, gym) have earned a special place in their hearts, as these teachers are the same ones every year, while their grade teachers change yearly. PTO is very active and there are several events throughout the year that are offered to the children, and a ton of opportunities to participate, as a parent.
