Bond Election Results

On March 1st, 2011, from 7am to 7 pm Fox Public Schools had the bond election.
They were voting for 2 propositions. The first one was to pay off a lease purchase on the High School roof ($160,000) and to finish the main entrance office space, construct a main entrance parking lot and install security fencing ($90,000).
The second proposition was to construct the community event center ($150,000).
A total of 312 people voted on this election which was outstanding. The proposition number 1 passed but proposition number 2 failed by 3.2 votes.


Thank you for voting and supporting Fox Public Schools.

Financial Aid Help with Kirk Rushing

Mr. Kirk Rushing will be here to submit financial aid information for Senior students on March 10th in the Counseling Center. Parents are welcome to come anytime during the day. All you need to do is let Mrs. Pevehouse know when you will be here and bring your 2010 income tax information. If a parent can not be here, the student can fill out the forms with Mr. Rushing if they have the tax information. This is a fast and easy way to file for financial aid and we hope you will take advantage of this opportunity.

These scholarships will be due soon:

1 Jason C. Wagner Foundation
2 Carter County Retired Teachers Association
3 Carter County Bar Association
4 McAlester Scottish Rite
5 Greater Ardmore Scholarship
6 There will be one application for local scholarships.Several individuals have
donated money for scholarship. That application will be available April 1, 2011.

Mrs. Pevehouse has asked all Seniors to make a resume of past activities so they can attach this information to all scholarship applications. They can list these activities from the beginning of their Freshman year. Mrs. Pevehouse asks parents to help in getting this done for their Senior students.

Fox FFA Labor Auction

by Jessica Schmidt and Mayara Carreiro

''$100..$100..oh we got a $110..can we get 120? 120?...Sold for $110!''
We heard these words a couple of times on Tuesday at the Annual Fox FFA Labor Auction that took place in the cafeteria. There was a good audience and some high bids. From all the bids together, the FFA brought in $11,795 plus donations. So we are one step closer to the new community center we would like to build. Mr. Phelps and Mr. Kirkpatrick really appreciate everyone that attended and for all of the donations.
