Fox High School
Weekly Review/Preview
Dr. Sherp's Update
Good day Fox Families!
Wow...end of January???? With all the snow and mixed finals, this month has just been a wild one. We are fully into the 3rd quarter of the school year, and it's the time of year that complacency has a tendency to set in. Students, fight through the urge to let things pile up and focus hard on being on top of your course work and extracurricular activities. You will appreciate and benefit from it in the end. Let's take a look at some of the happenings at Fox High over the past week or so:
Teacher of the Year & Support Staff of the Year-Congratulations to two amazing educational leaders-Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Kristin McKinnon and Support Staff Person of the Year-SRO Arnold Police Officer, Mr. Kevin Wilson. Saying these two individuals are deserving recipients would be a gross understatement. Thank you both for all the love and support you bring to our students and the greater school community.
Fox Gives Back-We had our inaugural Art Kasey-Fox Gives Back Night at the basketball game last Friday night and our kids raised nearly $1500 for United Hope Cares and over donated 600 canned goods to the Jefferson County Food Pantry, two of Mr. Kasey's favorite organizations. Great job to all involved.
Teacher Recognition-Mr. McClinton-Outstanding Beginning Teacher Award-Congratulations to our ELA teacher, Mr. Kameron McClinton for being named one of Missouri's Outstanding Beginning Teachers for the 2024-2025 school year by the Missouri Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. Way to go, Mr. McClinton!
Mrs. Sauer & Theatre Troupe-Check out below Mrs. Sauer having some fun with her juniors at their class meeting engaging in a sentence completion improvisation lead by some members of our theatre troupe. It was a lot of fun.
Senior Skate-On Tuesday we held our second senior class activity as we took our seniors skating at Steinberg Skating Rink in Forest Park. We had beautiful weather and I think all in attendance had a really great time.
Speech & Debate Finalist-Congratulations to Ms. Megan Kraus (10th), who took home a third place trophy from our most recent Speech and Debate tournament in the Humorous Interpretation category. Great work, Megan Kraus.
CERT Team-Our Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) got to together with our trainers, Alyson Rotter from Rock Community Fire Protection District and Corey Golec from the Rock Township Ambulance District, to provide instruction on the most up to date triage methodology. They also reviewed assessment and CPR protocols. Watching these kids work is impressive. They will be life-savers some day.
