Dear HUM IV Families,
Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope you and your family had a restful summer and are ready for an exciting year ahead.
At HUM IV, we are committed to preparing our students for success in college, careers, and life by providing engaging, challenging, and supportive learning experiences. This year, we will continue to build on our shared commitment to excellence by focusing on critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and collaboration—skills that will serve our students well beyond the classroom.
As your principal, I am honored to lead such a vibrant and resilient community. Together with our dedicated teachers and staff, I will work tirelessly to ensure that every student is challenged to reach their full potential while being supported every step of the way. Just as importantly, we recognize that our success depends on strong partnerships with our families, and we are committed to working closely with you to ensure that your child thrives.
This year holds tremendous promise for growth, achievement, and new opportunities. By working together as one community—students, families, and staff—we will make HUM IV a place where every child feels empowered to lead, learn, and succeed.
Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. I look forward to all we will accomplish together in the year ahead.
With great excitement,
M. Ali Shama, Principal
