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.
I just wanted to express my gratitude and say a big THANK YOU to all our Ford Tech teachers. They go above and beyond for their students, and I am constantly impressed by their level of passion, energy, and commitment to our programs. Our teachers make our building one of the most magical places to be, and the outcomes they produce are absolutely unbelievable. They uniquely demonstrate what excellent teaching and learning should look like. I am honestly one of the luckiest administrators to have such an amazing staff!
