Hi! My name is Rocky Ford and and I am beginning my sixth year in the Roscoe school system. I teach English I, IV, and speech, I am beginning my 21st year in education. My wife, Jena, also teaches and coaches in the district. We have two wonderful children, Kylee age 17, and Keeston, age 12.

Another of my duties as an employee of Roscoe High School is to work with the speaking events in UIL. The events involved are: Extemporaneous speaking (informative and persuasive) and prose and poetry. We will begin practicing for these events very soon after school starts.

The Roscoe Plowgirls are a very talented and blessed group of young ladies. I have the privilege of coaching them in cross-country, basketball, and assisting in track. Over the last two years they have made two state appearances in cross-country and advanced to the area round in basketball. During track season we had six young ladies advance to the state track meet taking third in the 4 x 400 relay and a state champion in the 300 hurdles. I feel very fortunate to get to work with these young ladies. Our expectations are very high this season as well.
