About Our School
Ford Elementary was named in honor of Dr. Jo Ann Ford,
an educator who served as principal of Carver, Pickett and Williams
Elementary, and Benold Middle School before her retirement from the
district in 2000. She was widely respected for her dedication to
children and to the community. Dr. Ford often visited the children
at her namesake school before she passed away in 2006. Read more about Dr.
Ford by visiting the Dr. Ford Biography

"The
greatest resource that any country can have is its children. My passion
and commitment are our children. I envision a community where no child
is alone, hurt, hungry, or rejected and where every child is treated
with dignity and respect. All children must receive equitable
opportunities to a solid public education in order to succeed in life."
