LOVEJOY ISD - There's a Whole Lot of Winning Going On!

Lovejoy Leopards


Lovejoy ISD has been serving students in the communities of Fairview and Lucas since 1917.  It has received recognition from the TEA as an Exemplary School District, the Lone Star Cup for Academic and Athletic Achievements, as well as awards in almost every UIL Competition available.


One of the reasons students excel in this school district is because of innovative offerings such as the Academic Enrichment Tool, used to match a student's passion and interest with the vast array of outlets that the Lovejoy ISD has to offer.  It's a win-win match for the student, who now has a source of pride and achievement and for the School District, who helps develop the potential of future generations.


Speaking of excelling....the Volleyball team has its eye on the 3rd Straight State Championship.  Tonight at 8:00pm they will face Paris in Round 1 of Regional Semi-Finals tonight at Texas A&M in Commerce.   GO LADY LEOPARDS!!




Also tonight - the Varsity Football Team will face A.M. Smith in the Bi-District Playoffs at 7:30pm at the Eagle-Mustang Stadium in Richardson.  The Leopards are seeking to GO ALL THE WAY TO CHAMPIONSHIP! 




Tomorrow, the Cross Country Track Team will compete in the Region II Championships at Arlington Vandergriff Park.  RUN, LEOPARDS, RUN!!


You may agree "There's No Place Like Home!"  The Sloan Creek Middle School will showcase its production of The Wizard of Oz this weekend.




It might interest you to know that 90% of high school students participate in at least one extra-curricular activity.  


It's a great place to grow and learn!

WHAR'S THE BEEF???

Whar's the Beef? you say...It's in Allen, Texas of course!
Cattle Drive Allen TX
 Allen Event Center
Katie and I attended the 2010 Rancher's Reserve Cattle Drive festivities culminating at the Allen Event Center this morning.  The cattle drive is one of the FREE activities associated with the Texas Stampede Event.  In its 10th year, the Texas Stampede has helped thousands of families by raising money for Children's Medical Center of Dallas.  This is the first year it will be held in Allen, Texas.  The American Airlines Center in Dallas hosted the first 9 events.  
I welcome this event to the community as a volunteer, but also because my family has personally benefited from the excellent medical care at Children's.  It's a cause I can believe in!


Of course, this beef would be about as tender as 3-day-old boots fresh off the press.  If you want fresh, grass-fed beef and all the wholesome, natural fixins you can now find them across the street at WHOLE FOODS MARKET in the Villages of Fairview.  Whole Foods has scheduled a Grand Opening for Monday, Whole Foods MarketNovember 1st.  The Heard Museum of Natural Science will be on hand to provide activities and information for the kids.  I may/may not attend the Grand Opening, but I can tell you that I WILL be shopping there!

Did I mention that Katie had her Cowgirl Bling too?  Is she just too cute or what??
