History Overview

夏洛特·哈索尔·诺兰于1914年创办了太阳城电子app，当时她32岁. 她的梦想是创建一所学校，“女孩们愿意来，不愿意离开，因为她们喜欢它。.100多年后，很明显，她实现了自己的目标. 福克斯克罗夫特的女孩们努力学习，尽情玩耍，她们热爱自己的学校. Each year, ITs (daughters, granddaughters, and great-granddaughters) and Legacies (sisters, nieces, 校友的表亲平均占学生总数的20-25%, reflecting this love, belief, and commitment, 被夏洛特小姐创造的欢乐和嬉戏感刺激着.

From the beginning, 夏洛蒂小姐的最高目标和福克斯克罗夫特最大的责任就是教育所有的学生. Her efforts to instill high purpose, integrity, leadership, understanding, and empathy in students, along with — as the School's motto states, "mens sana in corpore sano” (健康的精神寓于健康的身体)——指引着福克斯克罗夫特走到今天.

At Foxcroft's heart is still the belief that a school for girls is better than a school with girls. 夏洛蒂小姐早在一个多世纪前创立福克斯克罗夫特之前就知道这是真的, Mary Louise Leipheimer在1989年成为第九任校长时重申了这一观点. 在她任职期间，Leipheimer曾在the National Coalition of Girls Schools and supported research that demonstrated the “Girls’ School Advantage." 学院的招生人数和捐赠都在增长，优秀的师资队伍完善了其前瞻性的课程. Believing firmly that “Everything we do is curriculum,“从体育和活动到社区服务的课外项目, leadership, 和住宿生活被视为完成学校使命的机会.

福克斯克罗夫特举办了一场女子教育百年庆典 centennial celebration April 25-27, 2014. Following the close of the 2013-14 school year, Catherine Smylie McGehee, 她是女子学校的元老，也是追求21世纪机遇的热情倡导者, was installed as the 10th Head of School. Then came the stunning news of a $40 million bequest, left by the grateful and generous alumna, Ruth Bedford '32. 贝德福德的捐赠是有史以来对女子中学最大的一笔捐赠. The future is bright indeed.
