My name is Mr. Ford.  I am a teacher.

I teach mathematics primarily and English when I'm needed.  When it comes to math, I love looking at how situations can be modeled and explained through numbers and symbols.  Sharing this realization with my students has become the passion of my career.

I believe that life is what you make it, and you get out what you put in.   I like working with my fellow staff and community to make our school the best it can possibly be.   When things seem rough, and you just want to complain and blame somebody else, my advice is to instead think about what YOU have the power to change, and then DO IT.

I coach our school's Science Olympiad team, which competes in the winter and spring in a variety of event spanning the world of science against other Michigan schools.  We are always looking for students of all abilities and talents to cover all of the demands of the rigorous competition.

I am married to my wife, the band director, and we have two cats, Chico and Paz.  When all my work is done, I enjoy video games, comic books, and drawing and writing.

Please contact me any time by phone, email, or private message on twitter.  I believe that communication is the most important piece to the education puzzle.

Thanks for visiting my website.
