4th Grade

As part of their 4th grade education, Pat Gibbons‘ students consider characteristics that make strong people: leaders, innovators, athletes, musicians, authors, artists, and more. They study inventors and showcase their own ideas at the Invention Convention. Night of the Notables, when students portray famous people, is part of their biography unit. A year-end trip to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty concludes their study of the many immigrants who made valuable contributions that improved America.

Mission

Children are at the heart of all we do. We nurture a child's curiosity, ignite enthusiasm for exploring, develop tools for inquiry, for invention, for achievement. We welcome families into a community-wide collaboration to help our children grow into their best selves - responsible citizens and stewards of the greater world, makers of the future.
