I planted an elm tree four years ago and it's only grown about 1 foot.  Is this normal?

Very normal.  A Camper Elm has an average height of right around 18' when mature.  They can live more than 100 years in the right circumstances.  But at 4 years old, it should only be about 12 to 16 inches high.  Nothing to worry about. -Birdy
