Hello! My name is Doug Wilhelm and I am the Principal here at Ford Middle School. This is my 23rd year as an educator. I have taught 7th and 8th Grade Science as well as on-level, Pre-AP, and GT. I have been a part of the Allen ISD family since 2010, serving as a teacher and Assistant Principal at Ereckson Middle School and now the Principal of Ford. I graduated from Harding University in 1999 with a B.S. in Education and have a Master of Education in Educational Administration from Lamar University. My wife and I have lived in Allen since 2001 and have an 18-year-old son (as well as a 12-year-old Labrador). Allen is a remarkable place to live and learn. I truly value the relationships that I have with the staff, parents, and students and look forward to continuing my role in supporting you and your child in reaching the highest levels of success.
