Welcome to the 2025-2026 School Year! This year, your fourth graders will be embarking on a journey in which they will have opportunities to deeply engage in projects, collaborative activities, and one-on-one / small group mentoring. The structure of learning in our classroom will prepare students for their future years in school and allow them to achieve at the highest levels. Along with the curriculum, the students will be participating in lessons and activities that will help them develop as Pomeroy citizens and leaders. I will be focusing on our school’s character traits of P.R.I.D.E. (Perseverance, Respect, Integrity, Determination, and Empathy) in everything that we do this year. I firmly believe in the potential of all of your children and I look forward to working with you all.
It is with great pleasure I welcome you and your child to Room 20. I am here to support you and your student every step of the way. Fourth grade is challenging, but with a positive attitude and a strong growth mindset, it will be an adventurous and exciting year. For those I have not yet had the pleasure to meet, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ashima Das and this will be my fourteenth year teaching at Pomeroy. I am from India, have a Bachelors in Economics, Masters in Business Administration, and earned my California Teaching Credential from National University. When I am not teaching, I love gardening, watching movies, traveling and spending time with my family.
I encourage you to join the PTA and become involved in your child’s school life. Each year PTA sponsors fundraisers and other school events to benefit our students. The membership fee is $10.00.
