hello, i was wondering if the type of networking about will work?

There are 4 sets of 15 computers.
Each set will be connected to a switch.
The 4 switches will then be connected to a switch.
The main switch is connected to a router.
And the router will be connected to a modem with internet.

will all the clients be able to connect to each other and to the internet?

Agreed, since the switches just carry the connection to whatever is plugged into them. So all your computers will therefore be on the same network, just as if every computer was just plugged into the modem directly.

Just make sure that the ones going from the router to the switch is slot number 1, then make sure on your 2nd switch the wire connecting the first and second switch is in slot 1, Then all your computer switches will feed into the 1-4 slot on your computer...that way it enables all of switches to carry to the computers.
