Hello! My name is Natalie Ford. This is my 3^rd year teaching at Summerdale School. I graduated from the University of Alabama with a Bachelor’s in Science degree in Elementary Education. I also hold a certificate in Early Childhood Education. Summerdale School is a Leader in Me school. I try to apply the 7 habits in my life, as well as in my classroom.  One way I practice the 7 habits outside of school is by sharpening the saw (habit 7). I do this by exercising, participating in outdoor activities, reading, and napping. I look forward to another year here at Summerdale School. Go Panthers!
