Fox Lane High School is a public high school located in Bedford, New York, United States. It is named after the road, Fox Lane, that begins just to the side of the school's driveway. It is a part of the Bedford Central School District.

Administration

The current principal is Dr. Jennifer Amos. There are three assistant principals. Each assistant principal is responsible for half of the students in two grades, and follows them through graduation. [2]

History

The school, designed by the Manhattan-based architectural firm of Moore & Hutchins, opened in 1956.[3]

In recent years the school has undergone several renovations; these include the school's commons and theater in 1990, library in 1993, and cafeteria in 1999. The school has completed a multimillion-dollar renovation that began in the summer of 2005. The entire construction project ended by the start of 2008–2009 school year. The entire campus also renovated the entrances, adding another one on the other side of Route 172, and revamping the older entrance with a traffic circle. Most recently in 2015, the main track and turf field was rebuilt. Shortly after the conclusion of the 2023 baseball season, the old baseball field was torn down and a new turf field began installation.

Athletics

The Fox Lane Foxes teams include football, field hockey, ice hockey, diving, volleyball, soccer, swimming, cross country, winter track, spring track, dance, cheerleading, basketball, skiing, wrestling, lacrosse, ultimate frisbee, softball, baseball, golf and tennis. The Fox Lane Varsity Football team, coached by Andrew Giuliano, faced cross-town rivals Horace Greeley in the 2023 Gridiron cup, and beat Greeley 27-6.
