Amazing experince all around. A 5 star Public elementary school. Our 4 children have all attended Ford. Our youngest just finished her last year. The Principal was incredible. Very encouraging, inspiring and always receptive to the children & parents needs. The teachers were caring, dedicated, seasoned & always professional. The parent involvement was beyond any other school we've attended. All is obvious by how well prepared our children re forMiddle school and beyond. Go Falcons!

Rigorous academic school. Relies very heavily on donations and contributions from parents. This school is test focused and doesn't have the best support for the developmentally challenged kids. However, kids that don't require special needs flourish. TONS of homework and probably like all other schools go EXTREMELY fast. Spent many evenings just doing homework with my child. I wished I had minored in education in college thus I would be able to help my child more. But, it does offer good programs and has an excellent reputation. There are high ratios of students to teachers/aides so if you child is requiring more attention this may not be the school for them. This is input from numerous parents with similar viewpoints.

I have had two of my children go to Ford and it was a great experience. Excellent school and the new principle is terrific. The school not only has strong academics but the staff is very caring and loving. Best elementary school that any of my three children have ever attended.
