This school is a blessing in the RPS system. The principal cares; the teachers care; the faculty cares; the children and parents also care. It is a bellwether of community and leadership.

William Fox Elementary is an outstanding school! Not only is the more than 100 year old building beautiful, but the principal is very competent and impressive with her leadership and the teachers are fantastic!!! They take the time to get to know each child and bring out their best qualities. The PTA at this school is the best I have ever seen! The parents are very involved. There are also many after school activities offered by the PTA that can be helpful to working parents. I had heard what a great school Fox was and now know, after 5 years of interactions with the teachers, parents, kids, PTA and staff that Fox is a very wonderful community!

I went to Yale and multiple equivalent grad schools. I have the money to send my child to private school. I don't, my child goes to Fox. It is an excellent urban school - many of my fellow parents have similar educational backgrounds.I'd ignore several of the reviews on this site, which are not so much about Fox itself as one parent's inability to get into Fox. Instead, ponder the school's sociodemographics and their implications, and talk to current parents
