Welcome to Fourth Grade!

The new school year has begun and I am thrilled to have you in our class! We have made great progress in the first few weeks of school learning our routines and procedures. At the center of our work are the Y.E.S. core values - fairness, kindness, citizenship and respect. We are putting these values into action and modeling for the younger students how to be a positive contributors to our learning community.

Our classroom economy has officially started and I cannot wait to see the hard work you will put forth this year to make our classroom a fun and efficient place to learn and grow. Be sure to share with your families about your new job, salaries and the ways in which fourth graders can earn (and hopefully not lose!) money towards our weekly auctions.

I hope you are enjoying the transition back to school as well as the warm, sunny days and cool September nights. We have a great year ahead of us!
