Hello Ford Families!
Fall is upon us, and we have had a great start to the school year. Grade Level Student Led Conferences are wrapping up but if you still want to conference with your student's advisor, please call our office.
Students have been working hard the last couple of weeks completing their fall benchmark testing with their Language Arts classes. With hard work comes fun! We had a blast at this year’s Flamingle Back to School Night (see recap and pictures below) This was the first in person event since COVID and we had a great turn out. Be on the lookout for information on our content evening events coming soon. We look forward to seeing you there!
We are continuing to build community with our families and below you will find a link to our monthly parent meetings newsletter. Help us build a foundation for a successful school year. Our next meeting is October 24th! Please read through this newsletter, as it contains important information, and please reach out with any questions.
GO T-BIRDS!

Last June, Ford Middle School was awarded $28,800 in new band instruments from the Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation. All of these instruments will be played by band students immediately and will be a big help to our band program! Congratulations to our band Director, Mr. Daniel Kexel, for being awarded this grant to help our music students!
