福克斯/猎犬
At Foxcroft, every member of the community is either a Fox or a Hound. 自1914年以来, 福克斯/猎犬 has been a favorite tradition between the two spirited groups, which wage friendly battle against each other in student-run competitions throughout the year. 不管你是否从事体育运动, you’ll have the fun experience of being part of a team, 展现你的精神, and supporting your teammates in the annual Battle for the Cup!

“Foxcroft is about friendship, and 福克斯/猎犬 is one of the many ways to form friendships.”
福克斯/猎犬精神
真正的朋友到最后.
狐狸和猎犬的区别
A number of schools have “spirit team” traditions, but Foxcroft’s is educational and mission-driven in ways you won’t find everywhere. 福克斯/猎犬 reflects the ethos of our School because it is:
8项清单.
-
Girl-centered
The officers run tryouts, coach teams, organize events, and lead SingSings (pep rallies). Each team has a faculty advisor — called the Hound Backer and Foxy Fellow — but girls take the lead. -
包容
Every girl is part of the fun and has a role. She might be on “Big Team,” or on the dance team. She could be the scorekeeper, flower girl, or the beater of the big bass drum. A girl who has never played basketball might be on a “小游戏” team, and a tennis player could step in and stand out as field hockey goalie. 每个人都参与其中，甚至包括教师! -
协作
Team members work together to succeed on the field, 在比赛和唱歌时悬挂横幅, 做纽扣和标志. Leaders collaborate with their counterparts on the other team to accomplish tasks. -
连接过去和未来的纽带
Customs and traditions within each team and across the two build community — and have been doing it since the School began. -
这是一场才华横溢的庆典
Girls’ individual strengths of all kinds are recognized and valued. 领导 roles require specific skills — i.e. the Painter must be artistic; the Cheerleader should be loud. Leaders identify these gifts and reflect them in the positions each rising senior receives. Leaders know every member of their team and enlist her talents as well. -
适龄
在SingSings和其他福克斯/猎犬的活动上, 女孩们穿得很有创意, 有趣的, and sometimes zany outfits of their team’s colors. They have dance-offs, write silly songs about each other, and yell cheers at the top of their lungs. They don’t have to act like grownups; they just have fun! -
关于友谊
“真正的朋友到最后” is more than a motto. 当激烈的竞争结束, the teams gather to cheer for their own team and honor the other. 无论输赢，周围都有拥抱. -
有趣的! 有趣的! 有趣的!
There is an unabashed spirit of playfulness, 新奇的事物, 兴奋, and fun that you won’t find anywhere else. You have to experience it to fully understand it — and we hope you will come do just that!
