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 "Keeping the Magic." Our 4th grade theme is Star Wars, "May the fourth grade be with you!"
We practice humanity and taking initiative at our school and in our classroom. Thank you for caring and taking pride in WHS! Each and every student is important every day.
Walter Hill is truly the most magical school in Rutherford County! I am so happy and joyful that you are here!
Our motto: You are important, You can do hard things, We believe in you
