LPS Tiger Talk

Dear LPS Families,

Another great week at LPS comes to a close! Teachers have been working on mid-year assessments and analyzing data to adjust interventions, enrichment plans, and instructional goals for the second semester. We will wrap up the mid-year iReady diagnostic next week and continue to keep you up-to-date on the progress your child is making.

Just a reminder, we do not have school on Monday in celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday. I hope our Tigers enjoy an extra day this weekend to recharge, relax, and enjoy a little unstructured time with family and friends.

Have a wonderful weekend! We will see our Tigers on Tuesday.

Sincerely,

Kevin Fancher

Kindness Club

Our next LPS Kindness Club project will be collecting the aluminum tabs from your soda (and other) cans for the Cincinnati Ronald McDonald House. They earn money for each pound of pop tabs and typically earn more than $20,000 per year to help support their families and to help fund other projects. We will be collecting pop tabs throughout both January and February, until February 28th. Please put the tabs in a baggie/container and send them in whenever you have them...the more we can deliver to The Ronald McDonald House, the more families we can help. Thank you!

This year Loveland will be hosting our first ever Science and Innovation Expo! The event will take place on Saturday, February 1st, 2025 from 9 am to 12 pm at Loveland High School. This day is an opportunity to celebrate and showcase the amazing learning that happens around Loveland! The Science and Innovation Expo is a one-day event that incorporates two pathways for students to pick from, a Science Expo and an Innovation Expo.

For more information about each pathway, click here to watch a video, or read the brief description below:

Here is more information about each pathway:

• The Science Expo is a traditional science fair where students have the opportunity to conduct a scientific research project or engineering design project, and present their findings to their peers and community judges, with the opportunity to qualify for Regional Science Day at University of Cincinnati, called the Science and Engineering Expo. If students achieve well at UC, they have the opportunity to qualify for State Science Day at Ohio State University. This pathway is open to students in grades 5-12, and students can present individually or up to groups of three.

• The Innovation Expo is an open-ended opportunity for students to identify a problem and solve it with something they will create, or to simply create and share something creative, inventive, or innovative. Some ideas may be a DIY craft, coding/computer science project, an engineering creation, or anything else in which your child creates something to share! This pathway is open to all students grades PreK-12, and community judges will provide informal feedback about strengths of each project, as well as areas to grow. Students can participate individually or up to groups of three.
