Intermediate School

In fourth grade, children take on new types of work and social experiences. Fourth graders will be required to follow the many directions and long-range planning that their school assignments require. They also have to learn to collaborate with their peers of group projects while navigating changing social dynamics. Students will be required to organize more books and materials, as well as multiple folders for each subject area. Fourth grade work gets harder, as students have separate teachers for different subjects. Students will need to manage their work more independently-that includes homework assignments in multiple subjects, as well as, keeping track of long-range assignments and tasks. 

Students attend weekly Mass at St. Louis Catholic Church and are responsible for participating every eight weeks in Mass.
