I suppose a student who can easily focus on academics in a crowded classroom of up to 40 students, and who can stay on-task to complete homework quickly and thus have time to participate in extracurricular activities, can do well in Loveland schools. That was not my child, so after struggling through 5th and 6th grade, with very ineffectively and inconsistently-applied informal 'accomodations' (they are very reluctant to offer an official IEP or 504 that requires more reporting & greater accountability) we began homeschooling for middle school (where pressures on distractible, organizationally & time mgmt-challenged students only get worse) and now, 2 yrs later, are considering an online charter school for high school. I wish they'd close all the public schools so the $ could be used to fund a wide variety of competitive, independently-run educational options for parents to choose from & find what works best for each individual student!

I give this school the grade of an F.. and for the teachers and staff the grade of an F...Not happy at all with this school...Thinking more and more about having my child home schooled or moving out of the loveland school system...I wish that I had not moved into this school system....

My daughter has gone through Loveland Schools since 1st grade. Although she had a somewhat average experience at the elementary level, Loveland Intermediate has been a much more rewarding experience for her. The teachers are great and the staff is very involved and helpful. The team-teaching concept was a new one for us but my daughter has really excelled in this type of environment. LIS offers so many after school activities and programs. My daughter was able to participate in Student Council, Runner's Club, Science Club, etc. I just hope her middle school experience will be just as rewarding as LIS. Anyone moving into our district will really love this school.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Ohio used the Ohio Achievement Assessment (OAA) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science. The OAA is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Ohio. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.

About the tests


In 2010-2011, the Ohio Department of Education used the Value-Added Measure to show how much growth students made on the Ohio Achievement Test since the last school year. The state expects that student test scores will show an average year's worth of growth compared to test scores from the previous year. Ohio's Value-Added Measure is not the same as Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP), a federal measure which uses different criteria.

About the tests


Ohio uses the Performance Index to provide an overall indication of how well students perform on its standardized tests each year. The Performance Index scores are based upon how well each student does on all tested subjects in grades 3 through 8 and 10. Schools and districts earn anywhere from 1.2 points for each student scoring at the advanced level to zero points for each untested student. The Performance Index ranges between 0 and 120, with 100 as the statewide goal for all students.
