Douglas Intermediate School also went back to school yesterday. KSST talked with Holly Folmar, Douglas Intermediate School principal about the first day and her expectations for the new year. “The first day of school for Douglas Intermediate School was successful with a smiling staff and smiling students. Douglas School has great expectations for students. The staff will work to build a strong relationship with students and then provide quality instruction to ensure student success in fifth grade. We are planning for a fun year with a lot of learning!”
Principal Folmar also spoke about the unique experiences students have at Douglas. “One thing that makes Douglas special is the Science LIVE that students experience. Students go to a science lab two times per week to conduct experiments and learn science by participating in hands-on activities. Douglas teachers have prepared for this year by perfecting the curriculum and learning environment to ensure students are successful in fifth grade.” A comment that a student said that made Folmar smile about the first day of school was “I love this school and I love my teacher!”
