Open Quote Awesome families, neighborhood and kiddos. TERRIBLE Special Education experience. The Principal wasn't a good administrator or knowledgable about SpEd, and the SpEd teacher, psych, and social worker were under experienced, retaliatory and too prideful to work with outside professionals who know SpEd children. There was a refusal to collaborate and in the special needs world, this hurts our kids when schools aren't collaborative or knowledgable. My kiddo was hurt. The good news is the Principal has been moved this upcoming year so hopefully some areas can improve, but the SpEd teacher and some others need strong training. If you have a kiddo in Special Education I would be wary of this neighborhood school. Close Quote

Open Quote I have had a very so-so experience with Fox Hollow. We moved to the area four years ago and picked the neighborhood because of Fox Hollow. We loved it the first year we were there. Now, the school is overcrowded. The parking lot is a zoo. I have to fight tooth and nail to get my son a little extra help in reading. He is obviously struggling, and his teacher agrees, but the school insists that there are more needy kids in the school now. The Catholic church up the street is building a school and I plan on sending my son and my younger two kids there as if I can get them in. Close Quote

Open Quote Used to be a great school. Has gone steadily downhill since the new principal started 3 years ago. We have been at the school for 8 years now and its very sad. The school is deaf designated school for district, plus the children from Village East are allowed to attend as well even though Fox Hollow is operating at full capacity. These additional students use resources that the neighborhood kids now have a problem receiving, like extra help for reading or math. Two years ago the principal elected to cut the G&T program to half time, so the kids that need work on the high end of the learning spectrum are not being taken care of adequately. This year there is no librarian. Plus the school is overcrowded, there are over 800 kids at the school. When we started 8 years ago, there was a wonderfully diverse group of teachers, men & women, young and older teachers. Now the staff consists of mainly middle aged white women. Close Quote
