I love how all of the teachers are sweet and accepting. Food is great and lunch staff is kind and caring. Security is amazing and will make sure you are safe at all times. This year I was in choir and it was like everyone in there was family. Overall it is a great school!

Fox Ridge used to have the teachers care and be involved in the learning process of each student. Students were rewarded for the good work that they did, and got the support they needed. If the student was willing to grow and actually wanted to learn then the staff was there to provide that service. Now in today's day and age the teachers that I once knew have moved on and no longer work there, and the staff that is currently employed doesn't make time to help the students if need be. My younger brother goes there, and he is struggling to keep his GPA up because of the lack of help the teachers provide.

Do not eat the school lunch I was eating one of the frozen fruits and there were WORMS in the fruit. I was absolutely disgusted. Also they don’t do anything about bullying.

Some teachers are very good, some are not, some are just okay. There has been a gun threat the two ou...

Well, first, they give too much homework and not enough time on projects and assignments. Shout out to Miss Lakin, probably the best teacher in this school.
