Our Dragons are on Fire!

Douglas has been named a National Magnet School of

Excellence for the second straight year! This recognition is a direct result of the
dedication by students, parents and staff to the live out the theme of begin a
creative arts and science focused school. It is also in correlation with WCPSS new
strategic plan in which we value the 4Cs. Creativity, Communication, Critical
Thinking and Collaboration are evident in our classrooms, hallways and our learning
behaviors. In further support, our school was 1 of the 19 awarded a 4Cs grant for
the creation of a Musical Playground. This is quite an achievement as nearly 180
grants were submitted. The best evidence for me to measure how we are doing is
the joy and happiness that I see on the students faces as I travel the school. It
indicates to me that we are providing a very special educational experience for all.
We are on Fire and Roaring!
