Principal's Message
Welcome to Fox Chase Elementary School!
I am so proud to be the principal at Fox Chase. I love getting to help lead this extraordinary school community! I feel very fortunate to be a part of this school and to support the students, families, and community.
This is my 19th year in SD 308. Before coming to Fox Chase, I was an assistant principal at Wolf’s Crossing Elementary School for seven years and a fourth and fifth grade teacher at Grande Park Elementary School for 9 years.
At Fox Chase, we strive to instill our PAWS school values in our students: Practice kindness, Aim high, Work hard, and Show respect. These same expectations also carry over to our staff members. We strive to create a culture where mistakes are viewed as learning opportunities. Furthermore, we empower students to take ownership of their learning by providing clear expectations and opportunities for self-growth.
Our hope is that each student can walk away from their time in our building having cultivated their ability to approach challenges with creativity, resilience, and a willingness to explore new solutions. Ultimately, our goal is to prepare all students for an ever-evolving future.
Please know that my door is always open, and I welcome input and collaboration.
-Jeff Rainaldi, Principal
