There are many adults at Foxcroft who will touch the life of your daughter. An advisor system where no advisor has more than 6 advisees, the housemother who is only a phone call away and can pop in to see your daughter in the evenings if you just want to see how she is, the Freshman Team that will work together for a smooth transition for the ninth graders, the Dean of Students whose office and home doors are almost always open, the school counselor -- all are involved. Add to that the Math Lab, the Learning Center, and the Writing Lab, the availability of tutoring if that is necessary, and the benefit of small classes – and you have a village. Collectively, we are quite a force. And, student leaders are trained to be an extension of the adult community – so don't underestimate the positive power of your daughter's dorm leaders and Old Girl – all of whom you will have met the first day of school. |
