March 17 Election: 25 days away
The last operating levy was passed by voters in 2014 and promised to last four years. It has now been more than five years since the district started receiving tax collections on that levy, which specifically was intended to improve the Loveland education by expanding programs and services for our students. To learn more about these investments, which have resulted in excellent student achievement and academic progress across the district, we're sharing a series of videos over the next few weeks.
