Are you a Foxcroft girl?

Surrounded and supported by talented educators who create experiential, highly personal lessons, Foxcroft girls see each day of their education as an opportunity to explore and collaborate. They become not just leaders, but fearless leaders on a lifelong quest for learning—one that doesn’t stop at college.

Rider, athlete, or artist, they say yes to a fast-beating heart, a leading role, an FXC chant. And with a campus and daily schedule that intentionally provide plenty of space to reenergize, there are lots of adventures to be had. They come together countless times throughout the school year to rejoice in traditions of competition, camaraderie, and community, as relevant today as when Foxcroft was founded in 1914.

The result? A global sisterhood. Group texts that stay active for years after graduation. Connections that strengthen as girls change and grow. Friendships that they travel across the country—and the world—to keep.

Academic Concentrations

Foxcroft's Academic Concentrations program allows students to focus their studies in one of four specific areas—Fine Arts, Humanities, STEM, and Integrated Studies—above and beyond the graduation requirements, providing the opportunity to learn and develop their passions outside of the traditional classroom experience.

STEAM

STEAM at Foxcroft is taught through lessons with real-life application, inquiry-based assignments, and hands-on projects. Special programs including an annual STEAM Challenge, Purdue's EPICS curriculum, computer science courses, robotics competitions, STEAM seminars, and more provide girls with a robust program, in and out of the classroom.

Exceptional Proficiency

For girls who demonstrate a special ability and compelling dedication in a given area, the Exceptional Proficiency (EP) program allows them to pursue their dreams and goals while spending time away from campus to train and compete at a high level.

Riding

Foxcroft's Riding program is tailored to meet each girl's needs, for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders. Riders can compete regularly at rated shows or simply ride for pleasure. Foxcroft's riding instructors promote the philosophy that the sport helps develop character and the ability to make good decisions.

Advisory

Each girl at Foxcroft establishes a special, unique relationship with her faculty advisor. Through weekly meetings, shared meals, and other activities, girls find their advisors to be a source of support away from home. Advisors are there for girls to talk about whatever is on their minds and help them solve problems.

Fox/Hound Tradition

Since 1914, Fox/Hound has been a favorite tradition between the Foxes and Hounds, two spirited groups that wage friendly battle against each other in competitions throughout the year. Every member of the Foxcroft community is chosen as a Fox or a Hound. Senior student leaders (known as officers and mascots) organize and run events.

Real Talk

Foxcroft to me is truly a home away from home. Many are drawn to it because of the uncommonly beautiful campus. But the beauty isn't the trees, the horses, or the flowers for that matter. The beauty of the campus comes from the people that go here.

Foxcroft teachers are always willing to step up and help you with projects, homework, or even things around the dorm. They help cultivate an extraordinarily welcoming and helpful community.

I am interested in engineering and wanted to learn from women in the engineering field about their path to becoming an engineer. The coolest thing I've learned so far is how eco-friendly a building can be and what elements are used to achieve that. I am excited to start getting hands-on experience and see how [the STEAM Wing] looks once it's done.

I would've never imagined that I'd grow my riding abilities to the extent that I have at Foxcroft and with the help of my amazing trainers.

The Exceptional Proficiency Program allows me to compete all over the country to represent the U.S.A. Endurance Equestrian Team on an international level. Thanks to the flexibility of the Exceptional Proficiency Program and understanding from my teachers, I am currently in the top 50 Young Riders in the world and number 1 under the USEF (United States Equestrian Federation) Young Rider Ranking list.
