Student Health Plan Reminder
Important Information about School Issued Devices
With Chromebooks becoming an essential part of classroom instruction we want you to know that Loveland City Schools monitors what sites students are visiting and what content they’re searching for on school-issued devices.
We use a service called Securly, which alerts our district IT staff of questionable activities on school-issued devices, and provides the opportunity for follow-up if needed. This is covered in your technology agreement completed at the start of the school year.
Securly also provides a parent portal, which allows parents the ability to monitor their child’s online activity on their school-issued device. We are now making this available for parents to use at no cost. You can sign up for the Securly Parent Portal by following this link and completing a brief form.
To learn more about the services that the Securly Parent Portal offers, follow this link. If you have questions, please contact our district IT Systems Administrator John Lape at lapejo@lovelandschools.org
Spring Semester Student Art Exhibit
Please join us and all of our current art students as they exhibit their best work of the semester on Thursday, April 21, 2022 from 5pm to 7pm in the High School cafeteria.
LHS Drama takes the Stage April 20th through April 23rd
Loveland High School pays homage to the 60s and horror films with our production of the Broadway classic, Little Shop of Horrors, set for April 20-23 at 7pm.
Meek, nerdy Seymour doesn't realize he has bought a plant set out to take over the planet when he brings "Audrey II" home to Mushnik's Florist on Skid Row. But it sure gets him a lot of attention, especially from Audrey, the shop girl. But Audrey II requires a special diet, and that's where it gets a bit scary!
Since COVID shut down our production 2 years ago, Audrey II has gotten very hungry!
Tickets can be bought on the LHS Drama website.
Tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for students and senior citizens.

Students in the following classes will be taking AP exams on the following dates at the locations indicated.

Loveland Athletics Craft Show
Exploration Wednesday 2022
Each school year Loveland High School pauses from its usual processes to give students an opportunity to learn through community service and personal growth activities. The date for this in 2022-23 will be Wednesday, October 12. The seniors (class of 2023) will participate in either community service, a college visit or a career shadow. The freshman (class of 2026) will continue to learn about community engagement and personal growth with activities that offer a follow up to Link Crew Freshman Orientation. The sophomores and juniors (classes of 2024 and 2025) get to choose from one of the following options:
ASVAB Career Exploration Program
Not just for those who are planning on serving our nation in the military, the ASVAB is a valuable career assessment that can help students to compare their results with the career research that is done in Naviance. While there is no obligation to pursue military service for any student who opts to take the ASVAB, this assessment can help those who are considering enlisting to make plans for specific jobs in the service. Please see this link for more information - https://asvabprogram.com/
Practice ACT through Ohio Means Jobs
Taking a practice ACT can help those students who are interested in experiencing a college readiness assessment that will lead to suggestions for future improvement. Students will use the Ohio Means Jobs online exam preparation resources. The practice tests are scored instantly with detailed answer explanations given. Bringing a fully charged Chromebook to the Practice ACT is required.
PSAT
The PSAT serves as the preliminary SAT and also serves as the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (when taken in 11th grade). Students who choose this option will have access to free, personalized online prep tools for the SAT by linking their College Board accounts with Khan Academy. Taking this assessment in both grades 10 and 11 will allow for a measurement of college readiness growth. Please see this link for more information - https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/psat-nmsqt-psat-10
WorkKeys
WorkKeys is an assessment for students who are considering earning an industry-recognized credential while in high school. Students who choose this option will be assessed in Applied Math, Graphic Literacy and Workplace Documents. Any student who is giving consideration to attending Great Oaks or going into the workforce after high school is encouraged to choose this option. Please see this link for more information - http://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/preparation.html
Members of the classes of 2024 and 2025 will make their selections during advisory on Thursday, April 21, choosing an activity that will best assist them with making plans for after high school. Please take the time to reflect on which option will be best for your specific situation. A selection will be made on the student’s behalf for anyone who does not complete the google form. Please contact Mr. Mitchell at mitchedr@lovelandschools.org with any questions. Thank you!
