LPS Tiger Talk
March 21, 2025
Message From The Principal
Dear LPS Families,
It was a great week at LPS. We celebrated Right to Read with different themed days, announced our March Terrific Tigers, opened up the Tiger Trading Post, and probably the best thing that happened this week - we returned to classrooms to do morning announcements once our PA system was updated (ask your Tiger, they will know).
Students enjoy being a part of morning announcements and starting our day in a different classroom each morning. We had to press pause on this practice for a few weeks while the campus PA was updated. We are now back in classrooms - which is a lot more fun for students!
Students were also excited to visit the Tiger Trading Post this week. This is when our Tigers have the opportunity to turn in the Tiger Tickets they've earned. Students can purchase items or experiences such as eating lunch with Miss Cameron and myself, sitting at the "fancy table" during lunch, or numerous other options. Our students are awesome at showing Care, Respect, and Responsibility and are genuinely proud of their own accomplishments each month. Thanks for sharing your amazing kiddos with us!
We sincerely wish everyone a wonderful spring break. We will see our Tigers back on Monday, March 31st.
Sincerely,
Kevin Fancher

2025-2026 Parent Input Forms
Our goal is to match your child's overall learning needs and preferences to an appropriate classroom environment. If there is specific information you would like us to consider as we make placement decisions regarding your child, please let us know using the Parent Input Form. Please avoid specific teacher requests and instead share information on a classroom environment/teacher personality that would be best for your child. If an older sibling had a teacher at Loveland, you may comment on that experience and it will be taken into consideration.
- If your child is a 1st grader, this form was sent home in your child's folder.
- If your child is a 2nd grader, please use this link to fill out the parent input form. 2025-2026 Parent/Guardian Input for Scheduling
Forms will need to be sent back in or submitted by Friday, April 17. Please share ALL relevant placement concerns/information via the form provided. We are unable to accommodate individual e-mails, personal notes, phone calls, and impromptu meetings, due to the high number of students placed each year. We look forward to working with you and your child next year!

School Smiles
The dentist is coming to our school the week of March 31st! If your child has not seen the School Smiles dentist before and you would like them to be seen, please register them at https://schoolsmiles.com/student-signup/ with over 100 languages to choose from when completing the online form. All students who were seen in the fall are already on the dentist's list to be seen on during the week of March 31st.
The School Smiles dental program provides comprehensive on-site dental care at our school for students who sign up to participate. The dental team will set up inside our school to see students for dental cleanings. They accept Medicaid, private insurance, offer self-pay rates and grants through their foundation. If your child needs grant funds to pay for the visit, indicate it when filling out the online registration for your child
