Happy Friday Fox Mill Families,
Hard to imagine this is our last Friday for the current school year. It has been a wonderful year of growth and learning. We would like to thank all our parents for the tremendous support we received over the 2024- 2025 school year. It takes a village to raise a child, and you continued to show us, that as a team, we are stronger together.
We heard that our sixth graders had an amazing field trip to Baltimore on Wednesday. Thanks to our teachers and chaperones for making this a memorable, last field trip at Fox Mill ES. Our sixth graders will also be saying farewell to us at their promotion ceremony on Monday. We wish them all the best in middle school. May the friendships they forged at Fox Mill continue to strengthen as they navigate a new environment.
Mrs. Byrum’s class had a beach themed party on Thursday. The students were delighted to play with colorful beach toys and “wade” in the sand. We topped the day off with refreshing popsicles and tasty treats.
