Dear 4B Homeroom Parents, I am so excited to begin this journey through 4th grade with you! The 2025-2026 school year is an exciting time for us all. Our explorations will channel us through our imaginations as we investigate, analyze, and create. What can 4th graders accomplish this year? The possibilities are endless!

In addition to being your child’s homeroom teacher, I am also the Grade 4 Math & Science teacher, and Ms. Yurman is the Grade 4 Language Arts & Social Studies teacher.

Warmly, Ms. Vicari
