Welcome to 4th Grade ELA and Social Studies
Fourth grade is a very exciting time to build your confidence and become the strongest learner that you have ever been. This is your year to shine bright and create a foundation of learning that will boost you into the 5th grade.
This year, our Walter Hill School theme is 100 Years of Academic Excellence! We are celebrating the history of our school and taking initiative in the present! We practice humanity at our school and in our classroom. Thank you for caring and taking pride in WHS!
I am so happy and joyful that you are here!
