Ms. Barringer moving on...

Dear Parents of Lovejoy High School,
 
I am so honored to have spent the last three years getting to know you and your students over the course of their high school careers.   As my own boys will be entering kindergarten in the fall, I feel like it is in my family's best interest for me to secure a job closer to home so that I can be available for them and be a part of their education.  (One of them may not know that he needs that, but my observations of him over the last 5 years tells me...absolutely!)  I am hoping to work in elementary again so that I can be on their schedule, time frame, etc.
What has made the decision so difficult to make is the wonderful group of students, staff. and Lovejoy community I have had the pleasure of working with every day.  I appreciate so much the opportunity I have had to be a part of the secondary program....there's not a better group of students, staff, or high school anywhere...Lovejoy is certainly the best!  I am truly blessed to have worked along side your children in preparing them for their future. 
I am including my email and cell below - if you or your children ever need anything, please don't hesitate to contact me.  Thank you again, for allowing me the opportunity to work with your kids...they have such a bright future ahead of them, and I am thankful for the time spent with them.
 
Sincerely,
 
Megan Barringer

About This Site

So much can be said in a name. In our case, our name says it all. First and foremost, this web site is a labor of love by a group of parents to celebrate the school district that is the heart of our community.

Lovejoy is a community of students, teachers, staff, parents, grandparents and residents of all ages. This is a web site by and for our community. There are so many good things happening in this community on a daily basis that we had to dedicate a whole web site to showcase them.

We hope this web site will be a source of inspiration, and we invite all of you to share the love that is Lovejoy!
