The academic heart of the campus, Schoolhouse is comprised of academic classrooms and laboratories, music room, art room, ceramics studio and most of the Administrative offices. It also houses student lounges, FoxHound Auditorium, College Counseling and the Activities Office.
One of the largest independent school libraries, it houses two computer labs, several classrooms and a conference room in addition to open stacks, numerous periodicals and plentiful small group and individual study areas.
The library hosts many school activities including nightly study hall and school-wide, student-run Morning Meetings which are held three times a week.
A $14 million renovation and addition to the existing gymnasium, completed in 2010, created this beautiful facility, which houses a student center, kitchen, game room, dance studio, two gymnasiums (one a "double-box"), rock climbing wall, fitness center, and three team rooms.
The student activities room in the the new Athletic/Student Center, this comfy space is attached to the game room, Tuck Shop (snack bar) and kitchen. It hosts club meetings and movie nights, and also serves as a great gathering place for students to relax.
A state-of-the-art dance studio with a sprung floor, this room is home to dance and cheerleading classes, the student hip-hop dance group, RhythmNation, and yoga classes. Equipped with a projector, screen and a protective floor covering, it can also serve as a meeting or dining room.
This is a "double-box" gym housing two full-sized courts, a rock-climbing wall, batting cage, and a mezzanine level track with cardio equipment.
The student locker room is equipped with lockers, a team area for pre-game meetings and a laundry room. In addition, the building houses faculty locker rooms, showers and team rooms for visiting athletes and Fox/Hound activities.
Our competition gym features a hardwood floor, two scoreboards, bleachers, mezzanine-level gallery and -- as the original "Activities" gym -- tradition. It can also be used as a multipurpose room, hosting banquets, lectures and, with its theater-size video screen in place, film screenings.
Adjacent to the athletic training room and athletic offices, the fitness center is equipped with state-of-the-art resistance training machines, free weights, treadmills, elliptical machines and more to help students, faculty abnd Friends of Foxcroft Fitness members stay in shape.
The Jean duPont McConnell Stables and Riding Arena, a gift of Jean duPont McConnell Shehan, is dedicated to the "schoolgirl riding for pleasure or sport."
For more information on the stable and the riding program click here.
Rain or shine, riders have a place for lessons and "generals." The 200'-by-100' indoor arena features an enclosed viewing gallery and footing that was used at the Washington International Horse Show. Before the footing was installed, the indoor ring was regraded and fitted with a new watering system.
Surrounding the stables, are many paddocks, an outdoor grass arena, a large outdoor sand arena, and both novice and training level cross-country courses.
Court Dormitory is one of the five student residences. Each has a fulltime housemother and two additional faculty members on its "Dorm Team." Nearly 80 percent of the faculty live on campus, in dorm apartments or nearby houses.
