Howdy from Hart,
 
This morning our Hart students were greeted by the Lovejoy High School cheerleaders, football players and trainers and it was an awesome experience for our students! After everyone made it through the inflatable Leopard's Head, the high school students visited classrooms and spent time reading with our students. You should have seen the faces of our students in awe of their high school heroes, it was priceless. :) 
 
Thanks to everyone for your patience during drop off this morning. It moves a little slower on these days, but we want everyone to have a chance to participate in this special event!
 
Remember to join Hart in supporting our LHS Leopards as they host their first home game of the season tonight! This evening is Hart Spirit Night and we want to earn the spirit award for the second year in a row! Show you Hart pride by supporting our leopards at the game tonight! Thank you all for contributing the spirit posters that will be features at tonight's game!
 
I hope you all enjoy the three day weekend and have a chance to spend time with your friends and family. Many of our Hart students are playing various sports of their own this weekend or participating in other extracurricular activities. I look forward to hearing about their games/events when we return on Monday. The Foster family will be attending our share of sporting events as well. Our schedule is full of football and baseball fun as well as opportunities to catch up with family!
 
Have a great weekend and we will see you all on Tuesday!
Kathy :)

District-Wide Announcements:
 
 
Power School Acknowledgment and Authorization Process
The online Acknowledgment and Authorization process consists of completing a series of forms that provides Lovejoy ISD with information required for each student registered in the district. All forms must be completed by the parent or legal guardian for each student each school year.  The window for completing your Parent Authorization forms and update student information is scheduled for August 23rd through September 3rd.  Please complete this process at your earliest convenience using the attached instructions.  Please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it if you have any questions.
 
Positive Proof System Installed
Hart Elementary has updated our visitor sign-in system.  The updated system is called Positive Proof Intercept.  Positive Proof is the same system we have used in the past to track visitors, students, volunteers, and staff but now the system requires the use of a state-issued ID.  Positive Proof Intercept enhances school security by reading visitor drivers' licenses, comparing information to a sex offender database, alerting campus administrators if a match is found, then (assuming no match was made) printing a visitor badge that includes a photo.  The system was piloted at Lovejoy High School this past school year and over the summer all campuses have been updated.  The overall goal of this system is to increase the safety of our schools.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced chess player, we have a class for you.  Please see the attached for complete information.

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!
