Hello Ford Students and Families!
I cannot express how proud I am of the accomplishments achieved over the past month. From earning credentials to completing a house, finalizing movies, extricating a vehicle, hosting over 700 people at an event, and much more, the list goes on and on. Ford Tech exemplifies what high-level education and learning look like. Not only are the students beaming with pride, but so are the staff and families. I am truly honored to witness the immense growth that has occurred over the past year. I look forward to hearing the many success stories our students will encounter as they progress through their lives.
