Descendants of Adam Klein still reside in the Tomball area today. Don Rather was the first principal of the school and served in that capacity for 15 years.

Extra-Curricular
The students of Klein Intermediate have many opportunities for campus invovlement. We offer several different extracurricular activities including student council, National Junior Honor Society (NJHS), Falcon Bureau of Intelligence (FBI) and drama club. Students can tap into their creative side by joining Destination ImagiNation (DI) teams. This year students had the opportunity to voice their opinions regarding what clubs they would like to see at Klein Intermediate, and many new organizations were established based on student interests. Some new organizations include a dance club, a drawing club and a video game club. The campus also has a daily after school program for students called Be a Champion. This program was established to help provide an outlet for students after school to continue to learn. Click here for more information.

Klein Intermediate School is dedicated to offering a solid educational foundation in Math, Science, Social Studies, and Language Arts. WE offer on-grade level courses, as well as Pre-AP/GT courses for the varied needs of our students. For students who may need additional support, we offer improvemtn classes at all three grade levels, and we offer tutoring after school with late transportation on Tuesday and Thursdays. Klein Intermediate follows alongside the district curriculum for basic instruction, which is listed as follows:
English Language Arts (ELA)ELA instruction at the intermediate school expands and develops reading and writing skills that are introduced in elementary school. Writing and reading are the core units of study in all three grade levels. Students are taught to write for various audiences, purposes, and modes; grammar skills; and practice techniques in spelling, word usage, punctuation, capitalization, and handwriting. In reading, students apply learned reading skills in both fiction and nonfiction reading selections. The study of literature also increases in intermediate school.
MathAt the intermediate level, students build a foundation of understandings in number, operation, and quantitative reasoning; patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking; geometry and spatial reasoning; measurement; and probability and statistics.
ScienceAt the intermediate level students learn science skills and learn to identify components of the solar system including the sun, planets, moon, and asteroids; systems of the human body; and relationship between force and motion.
Social StudiesIn grades K-12, students build a foundation in history, geography, economics, government, citizenship, culture, science, technology, and social studies skills. The content, as appropriate for the grade level or course, enables students to understand the importance of patriotism, function in a free enterprise society, and appreciate the basic democratic values of our state and nation.
