Dear Fox Mill Families and Friends,
Well, it's official! Fox Mill students, families, and teachers are THE BEST! Our first week of virtual school has been amazing! Everyone's flexibility and understanding has been off the charts. We cannot thank all the people involved enough for this wonderful success. We are confident the system will get even better as the year progresses.
Fox Mill's office hours are 8:00 am - 3:45 pm M-F. Please call and make an appointment before stopping by. We are dedicated to following FCPS and CDC guidelines for the health and safety of everyone.

We wish you a joyful weekend.

Thank you for a wonderful first week of distance learning. If anyone has Fox Mill library books that need to be returned there is now a return books station at the front of the school. I will have a new bin out each day, Monday through Friday, and returned books will be quarantined for 7 days. Please note that the books won’t be off your child’s record for at least 7-10 days. Information will be coming soon about our curbside check-out program starting at the end of September. Thank you and please reach out with any questions- skslusher@fcps.edu.
If your child is in 4th, 5th, or 6th grade and is interested in playing an instrument, please consider joining the FMES Band and Strings Program. This optional elective is in addition to one 30 minute class per week of general music. Fourth graders may select strings. Fifth and sixth graders may select band or strings. Students who select band or strings will have one 30 minute synchronous lesson per week with other asynchronous activities that can be completed during the day. If you have any questions please email Mrs. Erin Zurbuchen, string teacher, at erzurbuchen@fcps.edu or Mrs. Patti Adams, band teacher, at pkadams@fcps.edu.
