My son went to private school through middle school and suggested that my daughter go to our zoned school so that she would have friends living close by us. It was the best decision that we made to attend Lovett 2 1/2 years ago (my daughter is now in 2nd grade). We love all of the faculty and staff and believe that Mrs. Simson is an awesome and supportive Principal. The new building is beautiful and the Fine Arts department is the best. The PTO is very involved and parents are always encouraged to do as much (or as little) as you want.

My daughter came from a private school setting and entered Lovett as a Kinder student. She's in the GT program. We are not zoned to Lovett so we applied at 3 different schools that we thought were comparable and would meet the needs of our daughter. After lots of research and much prayer, we chose Lovett and have not been disappointed. The office staff is helpful & friendly; teachers (at least the Kindergarten ones) are dedicated and seem to be invested in each child, which is critical. The school does a good job of keeping parents involved and has a strong PTO. The fine arts program (orchestra, band & chorus) is a definite plus as well. I would say to any parent considering a school, do your research, ask existing parents questions and get involved (hands on). Our children spend so much time in school that it's imperative we are making good informed choices and I believe Lovett is one.

My son is in Kinder and he loves school. He is already reading, writing sentences and comprehending what he has written/read. The new campus is gorgeous and the staff and PTO is hard working and so sweet. . : )They celebrate good behavior and educates whole child with all extra programs after school AND the campus still has art class! and a full time nurse! Ask around scool many have part time nurse and no art programs at all. Research ask question every school should have a full time nurse and art. LOVETT does.

My daughter has been at this school since pre-school. My daughter did the preschool program which prepared her for the academic challenge of their Gifted/Talented program in 1st grade. I went to private school and am very impressed with the education my daughter is getting. The faculty is warm and friendly and everyone knows you by name.

I am not sure who the poster below is agreeing with, but my experience with the front desk staff has been wonderful. Very friendly and knowledgeable.

I agree. I have had very unpleasant experiences with the staff in charge of the front porch. They are very rude! Parents should be treated with respect.

My daughter attended Lovett in kindergarten and we loved the school and her teacher Mrs. Grant. The principal, Mrs. Monaghan, who is the West Region Principal of The Year, is wonderful and so is the office staff. Families are very involved. It was great for my daughter. And they are an exemplary school....

My two daughters went to this school, and one of my daughters was in the third grade with the teacher, Mrs. Hurst. She was wonderful. She had every aspect to teach. My other daughter was in the kingergarten grade and her teacher was Mr. Keen. He always had fun and exciting things to do. As a parent that can't have much time for home, I feel like they are welcome at Lovett. I especially like the Music. My daughter was in violin, and she made concert master in the first semester. This school is a thumbs up for Anyone! If it worked for me, I garauntee it will work for you
