Fox Lane High School is a rollercoaster of emotions and events. The guidnace Department and faculty have been exceptional during my senior year, but that not to say it has always been like this. I was a victim of severe bullying since elementary school and unfortunately BCSD, specifically Fox Lane did not handle it essentially at all.

I would like to see better teachers at Fox Lane because right now like half the school is filled with inexperienced/poorly trained teachers.

I think the best parts were the teachers and the counselors. They were all very cordial and helpful people who I felt like I grew close to in my time with them. I think the worst part, to me at least, was the size of the student body. Hallways could become very crowded during the time between certain periods of the day.
