First I want to say that as a Lovejoy ISD Parent of a 1st grader (and one coming up through the ranks) we could not be happier with our childs growth and development.

I often say that sending your child to Lovejoy is much like sending them to a private school without the annual cost! The truly unique and very hard to quantify stat is that many students who graduate Lovejoy ISD leave with as much as a year of college already under their belt.This is an intangible, valued added proposition that is difficult to measure both because of each students unique and independent paths and because each college is unique in their college requirements.
