LIS Tiger Talk

Tiger Families,

It is hard to believe September is already right around the corner! Our students are settling nicely into the regular rhythm of the school year. Everyone has wrapped up their fall diagnostics, and we look forward to sharing those results with families soon.

Behind the scenes, our staff also completed our annual safety refresher alongside our campus health team. Together, we reviewed our emergency protocols and participated in a controlled medical emergency drill to ensure our school remains a safe, prepared environment for everyone.

With temperatures expected to rise early next week, the building may feel a bit warm. We strongly encourage all students to bring a reusable water bottle to school each day to stay hydrated.

Finally, mark your calendars for next Friday! Our Adaptive Cheer team is hosting a car wash right after school on the LIS side of the building. Whether your car needs a wash or you simply want to support an incredible group of students, we hope to see you there!

Go Tigers!

We want Loveland High School football games to be a great experience for families and fans. Parents are reminded that students in grades K-6 must be supervised by an adult who is in attendance at the game. Football games are school events. Students are expected to follow all school rules and behaviors and may face school discipline for inappropriate behavior at games.

Some areas of Tiger Stadium will be off-limits to students. Additionally, bookbags are not permitted in Tiger Stadium, and there will be no re-entry. Once you leave the stadium, you will not be allowed back in.

Let’s keep game days safe and fun for families, fans, and visiting teams by demonstrating

our Loveland Core Values of Care, Respect, and Responsibility.

Pick up

Families must make arrangements to pick up their students. Arrive at 2:45 to pick up your student. Most students are finished around this time, depending on pace. All students must be picked up by 3:00. There will not be exceptions to this rule. If this pick up time is not adhered to, your student will not be allowed to participate in Runners Club. Our staff members have family obligations after school and cannot stay for late pickups. If your child is permitted to walk home, please let us know. Our emails are listed below. If there is a day on which your child is not to stay for Runners Club, please communicate this with your child. You can call the school office if there is a change in schedule as well.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We look forward to a great year!
