Job Interviews
Tyler Townsend being "mock" interviewed by Coach Phelps
Coach Spigner's Communications class conducted mock interviews on Friday. The purpose is to prepare students for future job interviews and give them tips on the do's and don'ts in the job interview process. Coach Spigner says, "Of all the things we do in class, speeches, plays, debates, etc. I believe the mock interviews are the most helpful to the students." Coach Phelps asks tough questions of the interview-ees and attempts to put them in real life job interview situations.

Winner of the Door Decorating Competition
By Emily Westervelt and Sherrell Goodwin
The winner of the first annual door decorating competition is........ Mrs. Jones and her third hour class!
When asked how she felt about beating all of the other creative doors, Mrs. Jones replied, "I feel very accomplished." The idea for the door came from an Anderson's magazine she had in her classroom. The winning door only took a matter of three class periods to complete. When asked if she felt any extra pressure on winning since it was her idea for the competition, she replied as she chuckled, " Yes, I felt bullied by Mrs. Smart." Much hard work and effort was put in to the doors by all of the classes.
Congrats, Mrs. Jones!

Shopping Cart Winner - Mrs. Morse
By Conner Jack and Ethen Eaves
We interviewed the shopping cart float winner, Mrs. Morse and we asked her what it meant to her to be the first ever shopping cart float winner and she replied, "it means a lot to be the first ever winner of the shopping cart float. My kids and parents were super involved in making donations to help us be the #1 cart float. It is a lot of work on top of our school stuff, but it showed a lot of Fox Spirit."
We asked her what all she put into her shopping cart and she said, "We used our red & silver Christmas decorations, a stuffed eagle & a fox, a sparkling bouncing ball and Halloween light up gloves. I had a lot of help from my momma, and Travis Shaw donated the lights. Pam Nichols donated the stuffed animals."
To see a picture of Mrs. Morse's float, look at early posts this week of The Fox Flash Online.

Exchange Student Profile - Mathilde Parez
By Keaton Argo and William Lovely
Mathilde Parez is an exchange student from Belgium, and he speaks French. We asked her what she liked about Fox so far and she said, "It's a small school so everyone knows everyone, and everybody is really nice." We asked her what she looks forward to this year and she said, "I hope to get better at English."
Mathilde did not get to choose what school she wanted to go to, it goes accordingly to where her host family lives, but she is glad that she came here. We asked her what she liked here better then her country and she said, "I really like the food, the big trucks we have here, and the school." An interesting fact about Mathilde is that she broke one of her teeth when she was eight. We asked her if she would like to say anything to the Fox students and she replied, "This is going to be an awesome year!"

Tulsa State Fair
By William Lovely
Last week, I went to the Tulsa State Fair and it was a good experience. The people from Fox that attended were Avery Hoggard, Lawton Loyd, Crystal Watkins, Mr. Kirkpatrick, and your truly. We showed pigs and Avery showed three and got tenth and eighth place. Lawton Loyd was going to show two, but one of his pigs jumped out of the trailer and the results were unfortunately devastating, so he only showed one and did not place. Crystal Watkins showed three and she placed tenth. I showed one and got seventh.
The fair was awesome. There were all type of entertainment including mini-concerts. The bands that played were The Eli Young Band, Mike Posner, and MC Hammer! There were a bunch of rides to keep you entertained and plenty of games as well. I think everyone enjoyed the trip and it was a fun experience.
