Friday October 4th is a half day and all students should be picked up @ 1:00 if they do not ride a West Clermont bus. West Clermont will be the only bus transportation on Friday. If you need to use out Latch Key Program, it is a $5.00 fee, but a regular registration is not necessary.
The Magazine Drive is over. All monkeys should remain at home. Please send in all information from the drive!
The 8th grade is selling Yankee Candles; now that the drive is over…So please let me know if you need any. This supports their 8th grade trip to Washington DC.
Please put names on all items that your student can take off.
I will continue to send home a hard copy for a while but please know that there is also an electronic copy. Go to and click on the school website link. The NEW website will pop up and you should click on “academics” and under that will be “teacher pages.” Finally scroll down to Julie Mulvey and open it.

Thanks so much for helping me get these days filled. If you signed up for a multiple day, I am going to wait to give each family a chance before I use your other date. Thanks!
Language Arts
This week we will be testing the students over their sight words. The students will sit one-on-one with Mrs Hart or Myself and we will do the testing just the way you would do flash cards with them. I don’t like to stress the children out, so they really don’t even realize they are being tested. The students will bring home a form that tells you which words they struggled with and which words they got correct. The students will either move on to a leveled book that matches their ability or they will be tested over the sigh words again the next week!
The students have begun screening by the Speech/Language teacher. If she sees a problem, I will be sure to let you know what she has found. If you have any concerns for the Speech/Language instructor, you may email her at
Handwriting
The students have completed the numbers 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 & 10. This week we will do double digits.
Unit
We are finishing up transportation and community helpers this week. We will slowly switch to Animals and will fully be into our Animal unit by Monday. We are also throwing in some activities on the seasons as we switch from Summer to Fall.
Religion
This week we are focusing on why we are special and our individual gifts and talents! We are attending Mass on Friday and immediately after we will celebrate the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi in the gym if you would like to bring your pet.
