Mr. Bellomo, Principal
2025-26 School Year
As the principal of Fox Elementary, I am extremely excited to begin my 12th year with our Fox family. Fox truly is a special place to be!
Some of you may be new to our Fox family and many of you have been a part of our family for years. Once at Fox, you will quickly realize that each team member, no matter their role, will be working to make this the most memorable school experience for your child that we can. A school should feel as comfortable as a home. A school should be a family. At Fox, we are a family and some of the most important things that we will do each day is build relationships with our students.
Throughout the year your child will engage in many different opportunities and experiences that will have a positive impact on their education. Remind your child to always try their best and celebrate even the smallest successes with them throughout the year. As a parent, I can understand that we always want our child to shine the brightest, but what’s most important is our child’s character and the efforts they put forth in all they do.
At Fox, helping your child to understand the importance of their character will be done on a daily basis. Our team understands that the social emotional growth and character of our students is equally important as academics. Through a focus on utilizing a growth mindset and reinforcing the importance of character each day, I am confident your child will have an extraordinary year of growth both academically and socially.
At Fox, we continue to work very hard to improve our literacy practices. Our school and district is committed to using practices and strategies in our reading and ELA classrooms that are supported by the Science of Reading. All instructional staff at Fox seek to improve literacy for ALL of our students. Each day we use research-based strategies to teach the Five Pillars of Literacy. (Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Fluency, Vocabulary, and Comprehension). All five literacy components taught each day are the key to successfully learning to read. We firmly believe that ensuring our students are successful readers will set them up for success in so many other areas of school and life. Our Fox staff is filled with amazing people in all departments. No matter who is working with your child, you can rest assured that they are building positive relationships with them, and providing each child daily opportunities to foster of love of learning.
