Student of the Month is Elle P. ’25

5/15/2024

Chosen from faculty nominations for students who have demonstrated excellence in their academic life at Foxcroft, the Student of the Month is not solely concerned with classroom performance — the award also recognizes students who contribute positively to the classroom environment, demonstrate strong intellectual curiosity, and take advantage of the full scope of Foxcroft's academic program. The most recent recipient of this honor is junior Elle P.!

Before presenting Elle with her award, Dean of Academics and English Department Chair Steve McCarty shared comments from the teachers who nominated her, including her math teacher who offered, “This student has always been a high achiever in Calculus, however on our most recent test she exceeded even her high expectations. The test featured real AP Free Response Questions and she achieved near perfection on questions where scoring 60% is considered excellent.”

And her English teacher shared, “She is a model student. I love it when she comes to see me during tutorial and study hall because it shows how much she cares about doing well and understanding how she can continue to do so. She consistently goes above and beyond in her assignments and projects. For example, she wrote a seven-page synthesis essay when the assignment only required her to write three pages, demonstrating her passion for writing and her commitment to thoroughness. Her hard work and positive attitude make her deserving of the Student of the Month pencil.”

Congratulations, Elle!
