Namesake

Dr. Joe Ward's roots in education run deep. His father was a coach and teacher at various schools in Texas including Edison High School, where he taught health, PE, and Mechanical Drawing beginning in 1931. Joe says that he experienced "advanced placement in dancing" at an early age since his parents chaperoned many Edison dances, and many of the high school girls would ask him to dance although he ended up sound asleep in the back of the car by 9 p.m.
