State of the High School

By Anissa McConnell and Jessica Schmidt

The Fox school year is going great so far. There are are few new changes like an 8 period day and shorter class periods. Mr. Phelps says, "the reason we have eight hour days is because, we want to offer more choices for the students because, in a small school we want our students to be involved in everything possible". An eight period day allows for students to participate in more activities and classes and still get their basic classes. The Administration and Board of Education decided on this before school started in August. The elementary is involved in this eight hour day but it does not affect them. Even though the bell rings they operate on a different schedule. Several schools operate on the eight period day with Temple being the closest school.

So far, so good for the beginning of the 2010 school year at good ole' Fox High!
