4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWonderful neighborhood school with an extremely responsive, caring principal and staff, both my kids are doing great at Fox Run. The PTO is very active and plans a lot of fun activities for keeping families engaged with the school community. The kids have opportunities to play in the orchestra, band, be in the school musical, and participate in a variety of afterschool activities. Before/after care with the Carver organization is caring and enriching.Parent Review1y ago - Kendall Elementary School
